Hi, I am doing a new build and have run into this problem.
Here are my system Specs:
GA-x79-UP4 motherboard.
Intel I7 - 3820
16 gb 2133 mhz Ram
Corsair Force 128 gb 2.5" ssd (OS drive)
1x WDC Green 640 gb hdd
1x WDC green 1tb HDD
Raedeon 5770 GPU
FSP Aurum Gold 750W PSU
I also have a 3tb WDC Green HDD attached. When I go into the Bios, I can see the drive under ATA Devices. It lists its serial name (WDC30...etc) Space = 0gb
I can not see the drive in disk management, or device manager.
I am running version 2.7 of the Motherboards BIOS.
I have been reading forum posts all day and can't find anything useful. I think my board is UEFI as it is brand new 2011 board, although I saw that Gigabyte released 3tb unlocker utilities for earlier Motherboards (Not X79).
I have tried switching the sata port it is attached to, restarting, booting into win 7 install disk (To see if I could format it there).
All of the help about this is concerned with the 2.2 tb problem or the 746 gb problem. This isn't either of those.
Thank you so much in advance for all your help.
