    Et10k-Mounting of Hdd Size Incorrect

    Hi Everyone, I have a Et10k and had connected through Usb a 5Tb Hdd. But in Mount Manager, it only reads as having a size of 2.86Tb. Due to this, I am not able to transfer a 449Gb folder over to it. The image installed is VIX v028. Please help. Thanks very much

    Hi Sicilian, thanks for your reply.
    The hdd which is MD04ACA500 of size 5Tb was already mounted through USB, please see attached picture previously. But the Stb read the size as 2.86Tb which is incorrect.

    i have found out before size of my 8gb usb kingston said it was 1tb and my hdd internal was 7gb.
    unmount both and setup again as size should then be correct.

    Hi Cactikid, thanks for your reply.
    It’s still the same. I think it can only read a maximum capacity of 2.86Tb.
    Masters of VIX image, could upgrade the reading capacity please
    Thanks & Best Regards

    Nothing to do with OpenViX, will be a driver issue.

    The WD web site says that you have a 3TB disk (WD3003), which is why it says 2.86TB. The 5TB model is WD5001........ or someone has changed the label on the disk, because internally the software is reading it as model WD3003 ... see your picture
    .... and as the 5TB sells for a higher price than the 3TB could be a good reason.

    The size of the raw device isn't the same thing as the size of a file system you put onto it.
    It's perfectly possible to put a 32MB file system (or, indeed, many thousands of them...were not talking sensible things here) onto an 8TB drive.

    So, how did you create that ext4 file-system on the USB drive?

    Thanks everyone for all your reply.
    It was initially fix as an internal hdd, then I removed it to use as a backup and fix internally with a 3Tb hdd. So it was created and initialize by the box originally. As for the capacity of 5Tb, it is correct as my other box is reading it as it is.

    So when you had it in the same box, but connected internally rather then over USB, it was reported as ~5TB?

    Hi Birdman
    It is a Dm7020Hdv2. I can’t remember correctly, I think it is something like 5000+Gb.
