Re: LSI Logic MegaRAID i4 only recognizes 131MB of 500MB

So I went ahead and build my first RAID server:

Motherboard: FoxConn 6100K8MA-RS
RAID card: LSI Logic MegaRAID i4
Drives: 2x Seagate 500GB ATA100 - ST3500630A
2x Western Digital 500GB ATA100 - WD5000AAJB

Unfortunately, the RAID card only recognizes each drive with only
131MB instead of 500MB when I fire up its configuration utility.

Are you sure that card, with its current BIOS, can address drives
greater than 130 GB?
