Hi
I have mounted a 160GB Disk in a Blade 100 with Solaris 9 and only see this:
iostat -E:
dad1 Soft Errors: 0 Hard Errors: 0 Transport Errors: 0
Model: SAMSUNG SP1614N Revision: TM100-30 Serial No: S016J10XC08135
Size: 137.44GB <137438952960 bytes>
format:
1. c0t2d0 <SAMSUNG SP1614N cyl 255 alt 2 hd 16 sec 255>
/pci@1f,0/ide@d/dad@2,0

1 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0
2 backup wu 0 - 254 508.01MB (255/0/0) 1040400
I found the following solution to make at least some of the disk visible:
erased the disk label:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rdsk/c0t2d0s2 bs=1b count=16
and entered 65535 cylinders in format:

At least 127.5 GB for a 160 GB disk :^(
Is this currently the upper limit?
