XPS420 and 4TB drive with A07
Dell XPS 420. One of the RAID 0 drives was starting to flake, so I purchased a 4TB drive that was listed as compatible with my system.
I've de-raided the machine, installed the drive, booted up to Windows 10...but can only use 1/2 the drive. I updated the BIOS from 4 to 7.
I'm not sure what I'm missing, but I'm unable to find a way to:
- switch the BIOS from Legacy mode
- switch the TB drive to Dynamic or GPT
In the end, I'd like to have the entire 4TB usable. No worries about losing data - I'm all good with backups and such. Just how do I get the bleeping compatible drive to work with my beloved 2008 Dell?
Thanks in advance!
