Solaris 2009-6 installed on a Toshiba A10 laptop; it is about 5 years old.

I attach a 1.5Tb USB external hard drive. On boot, Solaris complains that it is 
too large for a 32 bit system. Consequentially, it doesn't show up in rmformat.

This drive had previously been plugged in to a 64 bit machine build from the 
same Solaris installation - it worked fine.

To test, I get out a Toshiba NB200 running a Intel® Atom™ processor N270 and 
plug the hard drive in.  Pulling up gparted it sees the drive with no problem.

Now ... given that my plan is to get a FitPC2 and attach three of these 1.5Tb 
drives to it to form a ZFS raidz ... what are the bettings that it is going to 
work?

Also, why is the A10 not seeing the drives? What have I missed?

Can anyone shed some light on this please, before I loose what is left of my 
mind?
