As you know I've been testing centos on an old mac pro. I have 1 disk left of 4 that I'm testing on. I had a 3TB disk and stuck it in and couldn't get centos to boot off of it. It would install, but not boot. I then got "old" disk 4 installed with it. Any idea why the 3TB disk doesn't work? I pulled out an os x 10.6.3 and that would install and boot. I resized the disk in osx and reinsta...

Hello, I'm a newbie so here's my question. I'm trying to install CentOS 6.5 on a HP Proliant 350e server. This server has 4x 1TB hard drives. I'd like to enable the hardware RAID 5 and stripe all 4 disk into one 3TB logical volume. Then install CentOS on the 3TB volume. However after I install I can't get the server to boot. I know about the MDOS vs GPT labeling issue. I've successfully installed on one (singular) 3TB disk on other servers. I have modified the partition tables, relabeling them to...

Greetings, Quick question: I am about to acquire some disks for use with ZFS (currently using zfs-fuse v0.7.0). I''m aware of some 4k alignment issues with Western Digital advanced format disks. As far as I can tell, the Hitachi Deskstar 7K3000 (HDS723030ALA640) uses 512B sectors and so I presume does not suffer from such issues (because it doesn''t lie about the physical layout

We have a 3TB external USB drive that I am trying to attach to some CentOS5 servers. I have tried an older Dell PE1950 and a newer R310 but neither one seems to be able to read the drive. It works no problem on windows servers/workstations and I was able to format with NTFS. I know there are different method...

I need to install Centos on a machine with 3tb raid disk. (3 ware raid card) Could someone in the list suggest a utility for partition this disk. I would like to have the whole disk in 1 partition and format it for ext3. The default partitioning utility doesn't do this. The OS sits on another SATA disk and each time during the installation...

Hello List, i try to install Centos 6 on a Server with 2x 3TB Disks. When anaconda is showing up the disk partitioner i cant do more then 3 "normal Partitions" or more then 3 "Raid Partitions". Even when u choose that each partition is 200mb, u cant do more then 3 "normal" or "raid" partitions. is this a bug of anacon...

Hi list! I have a 3TB usb drive with an NTFS filesystem on it, that I can't mount.: [bent at bnlaptop ~]$ sudo /sbin/mount.ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 /mnt Failed to read vcn 0xf28: Input/output error Failed to mount '/dev/sdb1': Input/output error NTFS is either inconsistent, or there is a hardware fault, or it's...

I am bumping this thread because I too have the same question ... can I put modern 3TB disks (hitachi deskstars) into an old x4500 ? If not, would the x4540 accept them ? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org

Hello, Do you have recommendations on EXT4 and LVM options for a 3TB file-system for mdbox? We currently use the mbox format on a XFS with poor performances since the update in v2.1 (Debian). We will switch to EXT4 to have the possibility of shrinking the file-system if needed (which is not possible with XFS), we currently have LVM partitions but with mdbox we...

Hi List, yesterday i tried to install CentOS6 on Server bei Hetzner.de I noticed that Anaconda Installer is not possible to handle the 3TB Disks in Server when u try to Partition them. U can do only 3 normal partitions or u can do only 3 raid partitions, the SOLUTION is: Before U install Centos6 on the new naked server: a) Start Server in Rescue mode b) parted /dev/sda c) mklabel gpt ( Answer YES, you will do new disk label ) d)...

Hello, new Linux user here and I cannot mount a new (empty) WD MyBook Essentials 3TB USB external hard drive (Model WDBACW0030HBK-NESN). I'm only about 3 weeks into this linux thing and so please forgive me if any of my syntax is off My linux OS is CentOS 5.4 x86-64 running on a dedicated HP z400. The WD MyBook is to back up the large data files we are creating on the HP4...

If I want to use a batch of new Seagate 3TB Barracudas with Solaris 11, will zpool let me create a new pool with ashift=12 out of the box or will I need to play around with a patched zpool binary (or the iSCSI loopback)? -- Dave Pooser Manager of Information Services Alford Media http://www.alfordmedia.com

so I want to install c6.2 x86_64 onto a 2.7TB /dev/sda ... its a virgin machine with no software, using pxe boot. disk druid or whatever seems to only want to let me have like 2tb of default stuff, I'm guessing because its not using GPT? do I need to preboot into a shell or something and use parted before I can install ? -- john r pierce N 37, W 122 santa

Hi, folks, This is a test post; to make it of interest, here's an issue you might want to be aware of, those with not brand new hardware. We've got a few Dell PE R415s. A 2TB b/u drive on one was getting full, so I went to replace it with a 3TB drive (a WD Red, not that it matters.) We got the system in '11. I built the drive - a GPT, 1 3TB partition, on an R320, from '12. smartctl understood it perfectly well. Anything else, not so much. parted *crashed* When I managed to force it to see it without crashing - I think I had to c...

I was rsync'ing data from one system to another, and the recipient suddenly started throwing DRDY errors. Now, it's a fairly new WD Red 3TB, and I'd think it was just a bad drive... but I'm really confused by this, from the logs: Jun 15 15:34:43 <servername> kernel: ata3: SError: { Dispar } Dispar? And googling, every reference I find to that word always has something else there. System's running 5.11. Filesystem...

In the worst case, it only has 0.5TB free memory to report, but reporting 0.5TB with this optimization is better than no optimization. (and the current 2TB limitation isn't a limitation for the 3TB...

> I'm having an issue getting a C6.6 install to work on a 3 TB dual hard >drive system, raid 0. I'm hoping that someone here can help. 1: Is this system booting UEFI or BIOS? 2: Is the disk partitioned with MBR or GPT? 3: Is /boot on its own partition? 3TB drives are larger than MBR and BIOS properly support, so they're only really expected to work on a system partitioned with GPT and booting via UEFI. And in that case, /boot and /boot/efi need to be individual partitions.
