Installed StarPort with Coraid Etherdrive no Disks???

I recently installed the trial version of StarPort to test out our new AoE Coraid EtherDrive. I am testing it on a Windows XP sp2 workstation before I try production. I have been able to add the AoE device, but nothing appears in Windows "Disk Management". I have rebooted, tried several times, it shows up in Device Manager under disks, but nowhere can I see it. It is a RAID10 setup with 6 1TB drives (3TB) on the EtherDrive.

Please, anyone have any suggestions/help??

Your OS does not support 2TB+ volumes. Either upgrade it or split CoRAID storage into smaller chunks (say 1.5TB each). You have ZERO chances for success in your current configuration.

I will give that a shot.

Does Windows 2003 Server x64 R2 SP2 support 3TB ?

Thanks!
