Frontview formats a FOUR tb external drive as a TWO tb ext3!

Re: Frontview formats a FOUR tb external drive as a TWO tb e

there are already tons of posts regarding the sparc devices (nv/nv+/duo/etc), there is no GPT support for these devices, therefore they will never be able to use more than a 2tb drive unless GPT support gets backported (highly unlikely at this point).

So, in other words, in spite of the many recommendations I received on the Duo - I bought the wrong NAS because it only supports older, smaller capacity drives. Newegg will be getting this one back. Thanks.
