Hi, new to the forum, great resource!

I recently rescued 3 Snap 2000 units from the dumpster, all in perfect working order. All three units have OS 3.4.805, BIOS 2.0.252, and H/W version 2.

Here is the question:

ASSUMING that these units are the later 2000 version that can get around the LBA48bit limit, is it possible to install (2) 1-terabyte drives? I know I couldn't create a single volume exceeding ~1TB (based on the wiki article here: http://wiki.procooling.com/index.php...%27s_Snap_2000 ), but the article at least implies that the 2000 could potentially work with 2 volumes of 1TB each. The dream is to create a 1TB mirrored volume.

I tried searching the forum, with no success. Does anyone have experience with this, or thoughts on the subject?

Thanks,
Phil
