Hi,
My ac68u can only show 4TB hdd as 2199.0 GB, and I don't know why. when I use fdisk -l please see below;

fdisk -l /dev/sdb

fdisk: device has more than 2^32 sectors, can't use all of them


Disk /dev/sdb: 2199.0 GB, 2199023255040 bytes

256 heads, 63 sectors/track, 266305 cylinders

Units = cylinders of 16128 * 512 = 8257536 bytes


Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System

/dev/sdb1 1 266306 2147483647+ ee EFI GPT

Here was this hdd in ubuntu:

Disk /dev/sdb: 3.7 TiB, 4000787030016 bytes, 7814037168 sectors
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes

Disklabel type: gpt
Disk identifier: C81425A0-964F-467E-B647-BF225213B24B

Device Start End Sectors Size Type

and I try to mkfs also got below error:

mke2fs -t ext4 /dev/sdb1

mke2fs 1.38 (30-Jun-2005)


Could not invalid blocks count - /dev/sdb1

I don't know how to get new hdd to work, and my Firmware version was 3.0.0.4.384_32799. Can anyone help??
