    Hi,

    A few months ago I bought for my XP desktop a 3TB HDD and Paragon GPT Loader. The installation was successful and I was able to use the whole HDD capacity. After a while a bought a second 3TB HDD. I install it but I can't use the entire space of the second 3TB HDD. All I can use is a 746GB partition.
    Opening GPT Disk Manager both 3TB HDD are labeled "Basic GPT Hard Disk", but if a try to create a partition on the second 3TB HDD the maximum partition size is 746GB.
    How can I set GPT Loader to "see" the whole capacity of the second HDD?

    The drive is internal. Both hard drives are internal.

    Is this software capable of supporting 2 3TB internal drives? I have an old xp box with 2 SATA controllers that I'm interested in using as my music server, and I'd like to put 2 internal 3TB drives in using one of them for backup.
