Placed a new    Western Digital Green    WD30EZRX    into existing PC for use as a data drive

 

Win 7 Pro SP1 with all updates

 

Intel(R) ICH8R/ICH9R/ICH10R/DO SATA RAID Controller

Driver Date 8/6/2010          

Version 8.6.2 1315

 

Bios says it see 3 TB for the drive,   Windows only sees 764436 MB of 3 TB drive

 

Research has led me to find the following statement:

     Finally, your system's SATA controller must also be designed to recognize 4KB blocks.

 

1 - Should my SATA controller be able to recognize and use drives over 2 TB?

 

2 - If yes to the above, how do I make it work?
