i managed to lay my hands on another PC & attached the HDD to it as an external hard (through external case). it identified it as 4TB directly
i am installing it in the new PC & if it copies>2.27TB without problems i know for sure the problem is from my PC.
it might turn out to be a BIOS problem after all (although it was working perfectly before & that the the current version is the same as the one before flushing, what a crazy world!)
i'll keep you posted, guys i am still open for your suggestions
