120gb hdd seen as only 32gb
Hi all, When I want to install FreeBSD 4.7 on a 120gb Samsung Spinpoint hdd, on a Asus p4t533 motherboard (Intel 850e), only 32 gb are recognised by the installer. Any help would be appreciated, Lars. To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message

See http://www.samsungelectronics.com/hdd/support/user_guide/user_guide_02.html I wonder if this is some sort hack so that the drive might work with old broken Windows boxes that might not support more than 32GB.

I've set my hdd to Cable Select in upper 32GB (capacity 32 GB) at the moment. I'll try Master with limit capacity in upper 32GB (capacity 32 GB) next, brb.

Re: 120gb hdd seen as only 32gb
Thanks for the pointer, the whole drive gets recognised now. The leaflet (that came with the hdd) calls Master with limit capacity in upper 32GB (capacity 32 GB) Pin Setting (32 GB Clip Pin Setting). Anyway, it works. Thanks. lars wrote: I've set my hdd to Cable Select in upper 32GB (capacity 32 GB) at the moment. I'll try Master with limit capacity in upper 32GB (capacity 32 GB) next, brb.
