Black Friday had 3TB drives for $89 so I could not resist now that NFL is killing my space. Ironically we seem to be on the verge of 64bit version 8 I was wondering???

Will be able able to put in a 3TB drive that requires GPT partitioning. Boot the installer and it will run GPT FDISK or something
like that that will allow us to format it and use it as a primary drive?

Otherwise are they better off in storage group....

Thanks

I've had a 3TB disk in my system for over a year now, mounted as /myth. There was some reason that prevented using it as the system disk. Was it BIOS related??

If it's a WD green drive it might be the 4k sectors. I think that problem has been fixed now though
