The problem with fdisk is probably that you have DOS compatibility
mode (when not using -c), it should also be set in sector mode (-u
option) which will eliminate those useless warning.
You could always use gdisk for GPT partition table instead, which
above 2TB is a most anyway.

But with parted, no issues:

Only use parted for 2TB+?
