You still haven't showed us the output from gdisk -l /dev/sde
OK, here it is:
gdisk -l /dev/sde
GPT fdisk (gdisk) version 1.0.1
Partition table scan:
MBR: protective
BSD: not present
APM: not present
GPT: present
Found valid GPT with protective MBR; using GPT.

Logical sector size: 512 bytes
Disk identifier (GUID): A072CFE0-0651-441C-8BA2-8527623BA142
Partition table holds up to 128 entries
First usable sector is 34, last usable sector is 9767541133
Partitions will be aligned on 2048-sector boundaries
