With 3ware cards depending on card model:
1. the card supports drives > 2TB
2. the card as initially released does not support these drives, but there
is firmware update after installation of which the card will supports
drives > 2TB
3. The card does not support drives > 2TB, even with latest available
firmware. (there are really old cards, even though someone may say
hardware doesn't live this long, I do have them in production as well, and
to the credit of 3ware I must say: I've never seen one dead - excluding
abuse/misuse of course).
