    Hello everyone,
    I have question about recognizing external 3TB on this computer with BIOS Version: SROSA001.86C., Win7 Ultimate 64bit, Serial ATA Storage Controler: ver. 6.1.7601.17514.I only see 800GB, what is the problem here? :confused:

    Can anybody help to find latest official bios, cause every link is dead?

    Did you by chance hook it up to a 32 bit operating system at some time? If you partitioned it on Windows XP or something else, it would only have seen 800GB. 64 bit operating systems like the one you have now should have no problem seeing the full 3TB. Have you checked under Start > Right click Computer > Manage > Disk Management to see if it was showing as fully formatted?
