In certain cases isn't there a way to format a drive using the GPT option? (I believe it's in "Disks") and then you select the drive in question.....then go to the upper right hand corner and select the "Format Disk" choice. When it opens you're looking to partition the drive using the GPT selection and not the MBR-DOS option. This might allow the entire drive to be seen. Granted it also might take a LONG TIME to format!...after all its 3TB in size..Hope that helps.


The problem with this drive doesn't appear to have anything to do with its capacity or its partition table. The logs appear to indicate that it isn't spinning up.

Then indeed?...it might be just best to try to return it and get another one. And to be sure that the cables can power the device to sufficient speed.
