Because Disk Management doesn't allow you to create such a big partition on a MBR drive or am I wrong?
Hi @lordelan & @Prod1219. I saw your posts earlier today referencing the post when I'd made my 8TB drive to work on the Wii.
This might be a bit late but after reading over your comments above and that original post I just edited it to include something new I found out for converting GPT to MBR which might be helpful.
The paid version of EaseUS Partition Master has the option to convert GPT to MBR as well as MBR to GPT. I had always used the free version myself until recently and now that I have come across this I've edited that original post to include this new information. My next attempt will be to take one of my unused External WD 10TB My Book HDDs and see if this still holds true for that size and style of WD drive. I'll update everyone if it works, but I'm confident it probably will. See attached picture:
