SAN DISK Unreadable

Hopefully someone can help.  Not sure which group to post this to.

I have created a 3 TB metaLUN and attached it to a Windows 2000 host.
The host sees the LUN, but only 2 TB worth.  The disk also shows up as
fine, I can initialaize, format, etc.  The Windows 2000 box has other
smaller LUNs attached with no problems.  I have read different things on
the NTFS maximum volume size.  Some say 2 TB, others say 16 TB,
depending on whether basic or dynamic disks are used.  I cannot get
that far though in this situation.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

MBR limitation is 2TB. To access disks above 2TB, you need to use GPT disks.

Windows 2000 does not support GPT disks.

2000 is dead...time to move on.
