Sorry Phillip if I wasn't clear, what I meant to say was that with
virtual drives in both virtualbox and qemu windows 7 created a GPT with
a 512 bytes per sector size no matter the drive size.

So I concluded that it must be the promise raid driver itself that
creates the larger sector size which windows uses as opposed windows
creating this itself. So whatever changes are made to dmraid would have
to be specific to the pdc driver.

However I do not have a promise raid chip set to be able to test larger
arrays in real life but the evidence from Henry and the other thread I
found indicate that this is the promise raid drivers behaviour.
