I have seen 2TB drives for which fdisk doesn't work due to manufacturing variances etc. C On Jan 12, 2013 2:41 PM, "mark" <[email protected]> wrote: > On 01/12/13 13:34, Amar Zende wrote: > >> Hi There, >> >> i have 2TB sata Hard drive at my computer and i am trying to use the fdisk >> to make the partitions in my system but the fdisk is not able to handle >> the >> 2TB capacity drive. >> Please suggest the way to get out of this trouble. >> >> fdisk will do 2TB.
