Brynjar 0 Posted July 4, 2018 Report Share Posted July 4, 2018 Hi, I just bought an used USB and eSATA BlacX (ST0005U) HDD docking station. And I put a 3TB HDD into it but it is only showing as 800gb on my Mac. Does the model not support anything over 800gb or should I be doing something else?

ThermalMike 217 Posted July 5, 2018 Report Share Posted July 5, 2018 Hello, Does the drive have data on it from a Windows based PC? Did you format or change the MBR/Partitions on it to see if that would resolve? (Depends on what I said above and if you have data on it from a Windows OS) 3TB should be plug and play, but again if it was on windows before that could be why.

Brynjar 0 Posted July 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2018 Hi, and thanks for your replay. No the HardDrive is new so there is no data on it. And I did format it and it showed up as 800gb. Regards, Brynjar Quote Link to post Share on other sites
