Subject: RAID0 size over 2 TB
Date: Sat, 06 Sep 2014 23:09:28 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140906230928.BB645CEE@pobox.sk> (raw)
Hi,
i'm having problems with growing my RAID0 array over 2 TB. I installed two 4 TB drives, created 4 TB partitions but array cannot be resized over 2 TB. Superblock versoin is 0.90 and kernel version is 3.2.53 - according to linux RAID wiki, it should support 4 TB component/array size:
https://raid.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/RAID_superblock_formats#The_version-0.90_Superblock_Format
