How do I unlock 3TB hard drive on ASRock Fatal1y Motherboard?

Last response: in Storage

I'm trying to unlock a 3TB hard drive that I have on the ASROCK Fataly1y Motherboard. I'm running it on a Windows 8 64bit platform. I'm also booting from the drive, but I have other hard drives that I can boot from as well. I'm not familiar with RAID, so I'm afraid to go into the UEFI and start poking around, does anyone know how I can do it?

After you download the ASRock 3TB unlocker, you still need to convert the drive to a GPT http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardwar... so you can format a simple volume to 3 TB GPT Allows a much larger partition size--greater than 2 terabytes (TB), which is the limit for MBR disks
