Gigabyte Extends 3TB+ Compatibility with New Software

That update was only available for P67 motherboards at the time though, and with the release of a new Unlock Utility, Gigabyte has now extended that support to other motherboards as well and they’re not even done yet.![Gigabyte likes it big]()

The Gigabyte 3TB+ Unlock Utility works by creating virtual hard-drives of up to 2048MB, which is the maximum some Operating Systems recognize as a storage drive. Both GUID and MBR are supported, but in the case of the latter, the user can only create a maximum of 8 virtual drives.
