Hello everyone,
I'm hoping that I'm missing something simple (like usual) and maybe
someone could straighten me out.
I'm trying to add a pair of 3TB drives to my workstation, which I plan
on turning into a ~3TB RAID 1 array, and seem to be having difficulty
realizing the full size of the drives.

I don't have any experience using disks this large in OpenBSD, but ye
olde fine print:
"Note that not all controllers and drivers support large disks. For
example, ami(4) has a limit of 2TB per logical volume. Always be aware
of what was available when a controler or interface was manufactured,
and don't just rely on "the connectors fit"."
However, it's far from hopeless, yet...
