phoenixsan macrumors 65816 Oct 22, 2012 #3 Yes, if.... You use as storage. But you can run on troubles if want to boot from it.....🙁 🙂
T The-Pro macrumors 65816 Oct 22, 2012 #4 yep, I have a Western Digital caviar Green 3TB running right now 🙂
J JuniperMonkeys macrumors newbie Oct 22, 2012 #5 Yes, and you can boot from it just fine. You'll only have trouble if you use it with the Apple RAID card, where (IIRC) it shows up as 2.2TB.
