Hmm, wasn't the issues with 3T drives, that they internally use
4K blocks and emulate 512 and that therefore 8 block alignments
are an performance issue ?

The reason I'm asking: I encounter the problem of the lost
secondary GPT table:

Feb 17 22:15:44 vserv1 kernel: GEOM: ad7: the secondary GPT table is corrupt or 
invalid.
Feb 17 22:15:44 vserv1 kernel: GEOM: ad7: using the primary only -- recovery 
suggested.
Feb 17 22:15:44 vserv1 kernel: GEOM: ufsid/4d5d8faa10b63ac1: the secondary GPT 
table is corrupt or invalid.
Feb 17 22:15:44 vserv1 kernel: GEOM: ufsid/4d5d8faa10b63ac1: using the primary 
only -- recovery suggested.

I had this disc connected via some usb2sata adapter as da0, and there
was no error message when I did the 'gpart create ad7' thing. 

When I now connect it to the some other box as ad7 and this error
message appears: Which of the two has the problem with the
controller not getting the large size disc correct ?
