Harddisk size

On the D-link website, they say that only harddisks till 500GB are supported. Is that correct, or did anyone manage to get larger harddisks working?

Thanks.

Re: Harddisk size

I've successfully formatted a Seagate ST3500630A 500GB drive. Formatted to 465GB in 2 primary partitions. Partition 1 = 518MB Unformatted
Partition 2 = 465GB Linux EX2

Everything works. Not sure why it makes 2 patitions but that's what hapopens when I slap in the unformatted drive and click on the "Format Internal Drive" button from a browser window.

So, why not to create a list of HDD which works successfully with the DNS-323?

You're in the wrong forum. Here's the list: http://dns323.kood.org/forum/t131-What- … NS323.html

I have the same HD in mine and it's only reporting having 2 gig.  Not sure why.  Everytime I try to copy something a gig or more it says out od space.

I put the HD in unformated and formated it with the G600.

Can anyone tell me why it's only see 2 gigs of my HD?

Where does it report 2G? df -m ? Setup a telenet and look up.
You can format it in a regular pc. 1st partition must be swap and second ext2/ext3 with maximum 128 inode size.

Well, you probably have a 4 choices right now.
1) Give up and use your 2GB space as you do now.
2) Find some guy with linux experience and have him to try solve this problem for you (probably with some fee).
3) Learn basic knowledge about linux. Use google or some certification course. After which you can try to solve it yourself.
4) Use hard disks which are supported by D-Link with maximum size specified for this device. If I am not wrong then it is 250GB...
