2TB Support in 1.06?
« on: January 28, 2009, 02:10:52 AM »
Iam one of those guys that actually bought a DELL to put my 1.5TB's in, and now when I was thinking setting the 323 to work again, I see there are 2.0TB's on the market.... so

....here we go again... - is the 1.06 supporting 2.0TB by the same fix as for the 1.5?

I'm curious why the 323 has to have support for specific sized drives.  Wasn't the point of LBA-48 to enable BIOS-level support for volumes up to 2 Petabytes (2,048 Terabytes)?

Oh nice I want to look into getting some for myself but I cant find anyplace actually selling them yet. The anticipation of 2BT and larger drives I believe has been taken into consideration with the 1.06 firmware but don't quote me on this I do not know for sure at this time. However there is no way to know for sure until the drives are tested and we physically need the drives to test functionality. Like the 1.5TB drives they worked fine in the unit just not in a RAID configuration.
