problems installing 2 new wd 3tb green drives
windows 7 home premium 64 bit os.
windows installed the drivers correctly
and the drive was in manage disk to initialize, so I did. The 1st one I selected as GTP because that's what was recommended for drive over 2 TB. The problem is it shows the disk with a 764,308MB and won't let me increase it. Everything I've read says 3TB drives should be recognized right off in 7 64 bit.
Since I had 2 I tried the 2nd one initializing as a MBR and I got the same results.
Not finding anything that points me to how to eliminate the problem
Did not format them because of the incorrect capacity issue.
