Drive size barrier on Asus Crosshair RAID/Windows 7 Pro

maestro0428 · Apr 2, 2015

I havent built a RAID for some time, let alone on an AMD board, but a friend of mine wants me to use these components to build a RAID 10. Asus Crosshair Formula V and 4x 4TB Seagate Hybrid disks/Motherboard RAID. Not my choice of disk, but he has what he has. I couldn't find any limitations in the manual or around the web, so I am hoping someone can give me someone insight to build a RAID like this.

Have you read the MS article on support of drives greater than 2TB -- http://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2581408

Thanks for the reply. I am not trying to boot from the RAID, it would be storage. I didn't see anything in there that says it can't be done. Am I wrong?

So the RAID 10 installed no problemo using AMDs RAID software. I am getting errors though and it dropped one of the drives. I am going to advise to replace the drives with something more appropriate like a WD RE set or set up the drives as singles. Took 16 hours to initialize and fully format.

Seagate does not recommend more than 2 SSHDs be used in RAID.
