Call tech support for the FW enclosure and ask if the bridge is ATA6 compliant. The only way to see the full size of larger drives is to have them on a bus that is ATA6 compliant.

But if I remember right, I tried reformatting one other time in the case and it still stayed the smaller size. Do I have to somehow reset it, obviously not a tech term, so it knows it has wasted space somewhere on it? Melinda
