3. G-SPEED with capacities over 2TB must be configured to
work properly with your operating system.
a. Mac OS X Users:
Set the item “Greater Two Terabyte Volume
Support” to “64bit LBA”, this configures G-SPEED to
report full capacity in MAC OSX
b. Windows 64 Users:
Set the item “Greater Two Terabyte Volume
Support” to “for Windows”, this configures G-SPEED
to report full capacity in Windows 64 (or Vista)
c. Windows XP Users:
Windows XP currently does not support disk volumes
over 2TB in capacity (2048 GB). You must configure
G-SPEED with multiple volumes of 2TB or less as
described here:
c1. Choose “Quick Create”, select your RAID level
and leave the default setting of “No” under
“Greater Two Terabyte Volume Support”. This will
create the maximum Volume size of 2047.97GB
(2199GB from disk) allowed in 32bit systems.
c2. Continue to create Volumes on the G-SPEED by
selecting “Create Volume Set” under the “VolumeSet
Functions” on the left navigation bar. This screen will
appear:
c3. Hit “submit” to enter the configuration page.
Select your desired RAID level, check “Confirm the
Operation” and hit “Submit”. Continue this process
until all available space has been used.
This process will create multiple Volumes that will
appear in Windows Disk Manager as disks ready to
be formatted. It is possible to create one large
Volume in Windows by “spanning” these logical
disks. Refer to your OS documentation for details.
