October 4, 20196 yr Hello folks. I have just today started with unraid and hit a hurdle early on. All my drives are showing as 2.2tb, they are 3tb drives, 1 is 4 tb (that I was going to use for parity This is in the section where I assign the drives. I have an H200 (dell) in there. The internet as usual is a bit woolly on this but it seems these cards should be happy to see larger drives, but yet mine does not. Is there any other consideration I have not thought of? Its in a PCI 16x slot if that makes any difference
October 4, 20196 yr Community Expert Larger drives being limited to 2.2TB is a standard symptom of older disk controllers. As was said unless there is a firmware upgrade the controller is not suitable for modern large drives.
