Hi guys,
Could some kind person confirm or explain why I cant put a 10Tb HDD in my Dell PC please?
I have been told that the limit for each of the SATA connections in my 2013 Dell XPS8700 is 3Tb.
I would very much like to put a quiet 8-12Tb HDD in place of the existing 2Tb drive.
I have been told that this is a function of the present Dell bios for this model, which I accept as true.
The bit I don't understand is why can I plug in an 8Tb Seagate Hub Plus external USB, and seemingly not have problems?
It looks like I'm heading for getting a NAS I guess....
