Default SNAP 4000 LBA48bit trouble

I have some trouble with upgrading my Snapserver.

It's a Quantum Snap Server 4000

Original drives were 4*30GB Quantums
SnapOs was 3.4.803
Hardware is 2.0.1
Serial# is 308520
Bios is 2.0.282

I've tried ist with 1 * WD3200 Caviar SE
(first only one Drive, later I want to buy more)

It reports only 137GB Drive space (128GBwhen formated).
Then I read about the LBA48 issue and updated it to 3.4.805 (US).
It still reports only 128GB, no matter what I try (like reformat the HD in a PC or so)

There is a note of a funktioning Snap4000 Upgrade with the same parameters.
(ID27 by Farner) at http://wiki.procooling.com/index.php...Drive_Upgrades

Any ideas what I can do?
Is there another trick?
I hope there is anyone who can help

P.S.
All other drives are removed, it is only the WD 320GB drive in the Box

The problem is the operating system. Only Snap OS 3.4.805 and higher support LBA 48bit. Once you get that then the drives should show their full capacity.

from debug enter
ide 48bitLBACounter get (if it returns 0 its not on)
ide 48bitLBACounter reset (I do not know if you need to enter any value here)

co de format 10000 /reinit

If the unit is showing the drive as a orphin or broken raid you must clear it first.

These should fix your problem, Some just like to be problem child.
