I just built a new machine to host all of my media on my home network.

Windows 7 Pro
ASRock B85M-DGS mobo
Intel i3 4150

I'm running the OS off of a 32GB SSD but want to set up a raid between two 5TB HDDs as a storage drive for all of my files.

Disk management is not letting me do this, or even extend a volume on either drive beyond approximately 2TB. Obviously I've run into a limit of some kind.

I did a little poking around and I guess there's limitation with volume sizes with MBR. But that's kind of the extent to which I'm able to understand regarding the issue.

If anyone knows how to go about rectifying this or even just clearly identify the issue, it would be much appreciated.
