Won't boot with 5TB drive
I tried to connect a Toshiba 5tb internal SATA HDD and the system froze at the "Dell" logo screen. I tried using another Seagate 5TB externa USB drive and it connects just fine. However, if I reboot I have to disconnect the drive or system will freeze at the "Dell" logo

Booting from drives larger than 2.2tb requires special considerations, including GPT partitioning and a UEFI.
Which model is this?

Do you have it set up for UEFI or legacy boot?
