So the Paragon GPT loader works then? Is it free download or purchase? I noticed someone else asked that question. I also though if the usb cord that came with it is only usb 3, but it states it would wok with usb 2.

HI Paul, I had the same issue Bought my 3TB drive Nov 2014 and tried to backup my files to it and no go, I tried over and over, renaming, repartitioning, but it still only has so much space, and not enough for what I have!! Like you said, if I would have known this, and I asked the people who sell it which said oh ya it will work, I would have also bought a 2TB.

With this in place, Windows XP users can utilize the full storage of 3TB hard drives.

They basically create a specially signed driver to make Windows XP compatible with the GPT partitioning scheme. The problem however is that GPT is not supported by Windows XP. That's roughly one third of space that cannot be used.Īn alternative is an advanced partitioning scheme like GUID Partition Table (GPT) which can support 3TB volumes. Why? Because the operating system cannot address disk space beyond the 2 Terabyte limit. Windows XP users will however notice that they cannot use all of the space of the hard drive. These high capacity hard drives will work fine for users running Windows Vista, Windows 7 or a Windows Server 2008 operating system. All hard drive manufacturers have announced the first wave of 3TB (that's 3 Terabytes) hard drives in the first half of 2010, and first 3TB hard drives like the Western Digital Caviar Green WD30EZRSDTL 3TB are now available.
