Re: Curious about WinXP 2TB+ limit

So I should be fine adding a 1TB hard drive and Windows should recognize more than 2TB?

Just can't have more than 2TB in a RAID?

The limit is to MBR. It can't create a partition larger than 2TB and can't create a volume beyond the 2TB mark (provided that you're using 512b sectors).

This is to say that you'd need a storage device greater than 2TB to run into this problem.
