mastermindzh Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Hey guys, Bit of an issue... I replaced two 500gb drives with new 2TB WD red drives (which have been thoroughly tested) and the first one went alright. The second one, however, shows up as 500gb usable space instead of 2tb. (picture below) I used the exact same progress for replacing both and I already tried both a reboot and clearing disk statistics. Any ideas why? PS: fdisk lists it as 2TB just fine: Quote Disk /dev/sdc: 1.8 TiB, 2000398934016 bytes, 3907029168 sectors Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes Disklabel type: dos Disk identifier: 0x00000000 Quote Link to comment

mastermindzh Posted September 9, 2017 Author Share Posted September 9, 2017 The one from the forum post. It got this video attached to it: Don't see what it would matter seeing as I did it twice and one did succeed. Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Strange issue, post your diagnostics, maybe something there. Quote Link to comment
mastermindzh Posted September 10, 2017 Author Share Posted September 10, 2017 Replaced it with another 2TB drive and now shows 2TB. Will run more checks on the drive that showed 500GB and add it back in later. Quote Link to comment
