Boot problem when a 2TB+ HDD is connected

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi all,

I have a boot problem that freezes as soon as I plug in a HDD bigger than 2Tb in Sata or USB but if I plug the disk in USB after the boot in USB it is recognized and works very well.
My motherboard is an ASRock H81 Pro BTC R2.0, it is rather recent (UEFI).
I specify that it is not on this (these) disk(s) that I want to boot, it is on the SSD of 500 Gb, but it is the presence of the disk of more than 2 Tb which prevents the computer from booting.

Would you know of this problem, thanks in advance?

	Hello, Please use the support form, and fill in the details about the hardware, and the model and brand of the disks, and where you connect them. https://event.asrock.com/tsd.asp Also important is which OS is used, and if it's instyaleld in UEFI (GPT) mode
	Kind Regards
