SATA drives do boast a hot connection. I have a 500 and a one terabyte in
this system and they do transfer data quickly for sure.

Yes, now I will insert a caveat that these are running on an XP operating
system at 32 bits. I hear that access times are affected by this
combination, but I do have full access to the 4 Tb. And these are internal
drives connected using SATA.

Interesting, my research indicates that anything over 2 terabytes is not
addressed using NTFS, guess you can't believe everything you read on the
internet. Thank you, so I gather you are addressing every bit of your 4
terabytes.

David,
I have a couple internal 4Tb drives in my desktop tower, but have no idea
what GPT is. I formatted mine (or ensured that they are formatted) as NTFS.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] question about large external hard drives
I have been considering getting a 4 terabyte drive or even possibly larger
and I am already aware that if is an internal drive that goes in a case it
has to be formatted as GPT. Conversely I figure if it is already in its’ own
case that it is most likely already formatted.
I was just curious if there was anything else to make note or be aware of is
all.

You don't have to be crazy to run a list like this, but it does help.
