Hi,

Have a strange problem.  System with 6x750GB SATA drives installed.  One 
failed, so replaced it.  Drive is recognised properly at boot time:

SCSI device sdc: 1465149168 512-byte hdwr sectors (750156 MB)
sdc: Write Protect is off
sdc: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00
SCSI device sdc: drive cache: write back
SCSI device sdc: 1465149168 512-byte hdwr sectors (750156 MB)
sdc: Write Protect is off
sdc: Mode Sense: 00 3a 00 00
SCSI device sdc: drive cache: write back
 sdc:<6>ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:1d.2[C] -> GSI 23 (level, low) -> 
IRQ 58

However, both parted and fdisk insist on treating the drive as a 50GB 
drive for some reason:

fdisk -l /dev/sdc

Disk /dev/sdc: 50.0 GB, 50000000000 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 6078 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

parted /dev/sdc
GNU Parted 1.7.1
Using /dev/sdc
Welcome to GNU Parted! Type 'help' to view a list of commands.
(parted) mklabel gpt
(parted) print

Disk /dev/sdc: 50.0GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: gpt

Number  Start  End  Size  File system  Name  Flags

Any idea why this could be happening?

Regards,
