In the past, Windows used 32-bit block numbers in the lower storage stack. This effectively limited support for single disk devices-which might be hardware RAID sets, sometimes called virtual disks or LUNs-to being no larger than 2TB. To get storage unit sizes beyond 2 TB, one had to combine multiple LUNs using the Windows Disk Management. This problem would give those users no other alternatives than to combine with software RAID. For CalDigit VR, S2VR Duo, S2VR HD, FirewireVR: There is no remedy for such situation. If the disk array is larger than 2TB, please change the RAID setting and/or downsize the array. For HDPro, HDOne, CalDigit RAIDCard, HDElement: Delete the original array, and re-create a new array with 4096KB sector size via RAIDShield.
