Default Re: large disk support

3 things to try.

That is a very early SN for your 2000.

1. Using the MFG utility make sure the size has not been reduced to 137gig. Some drives have a jumper that can control the cap. Do a quick format with the mfg utility, Which OS you use doesn't matter. Install letting the Snap prepare the HD. It take approx 10 min before you will be able to connect, while it copies the OS to the HD. OK ???
2. Set the jumpers to CS. * and try the /reinit agian. (WD has a singel drive jumper setting.)

Once the Master HD has it capacity correct the slave HD will be fine.

* Some of the older units were particular on the jumper settings.
