Subject:   DPT SmartRAID IV & >128GB drives

I just tried out Seagate 180GB on DPT SmartRAID IV, with the box running
3.5-STABLE (last installworld 2002/01/02). Well, the kernel output says
the drive was identified as 128GB drive (ouch!). When I tried to run
sysinstall, it triggered segmentation fault.

Well, that ain't a problem, as this box is being planned to upgraded to
4.x. What I'm worried is DPT and the big drive. Since DPT was swallowed by
Adaptec, I don't expect much from them. (I didn't have much luck with
Adaptec tech support for few years now.)

I'd like to know if DPT+180GB behavior is an anomaly on my setup or is it
a known problem? I'm hoping there are good numbers of people here who had
BTDT with DPT SRIV to give some comments...?
