Can I connect a 3TB or larger hard drive to my Dockstar? Do I need some tricks to make it work?

funtoy1001,

Yes, but to have it recognized as a whole 3TB disk you need new u-boot:

If you're running older u-boot, then you can use a hybrid-MBR approach (one really small MBR partition, one large GPT partition).

Thank you, bodhi. Is http://www.rodsbooks.com/gdisk/ a good site to look into hybrid-MBR ?
