    In order for windows to use hard drives larger than 2 terabytes the drive must be setup with one or more GPT partition(s).

    That can't be cause I put it in my machine and it just sees the whole thing but it may be some boards are like that. My shop machine is an older board his is almost new. Mine just sees it. Also there is no option in the raid setup to set them as GPT and once you are in windows disc management it only shows the 2TB but I will look into it and Thanks.
