GA-945P-S3 Rev2 Maximum disk size
« on: March 23, 2014, 11:42:27 pm »
Hi everyone, I've just added a 3Tb 7200 Segate Barracuda to my ageing GA-945P-S3 , the bios is only reporting it as 2Tb and any attempt by Windows to write past 2Tb results in a corrupt disk.  I believe I'm running the "latest" FE version of the bios and have been unable to find any documentation on maximum hard drive size, is there anything I can do to use my new disk to its full capacity or is it beyond the capabilities of this board?

TIA

Vecta

It could be the board doesn't support that large of a drive.
