GA-EP45-UD3P rev1.0 for 4TB drives

[Aardobard]

Looking for a solution for 4TB drives on this board. I love my UD3P, really I do. Thank you in advance.

Just saw your posting. I'll look into it later this evening.

I modified the latest, F10 version of the bios downloaded from the Gigabyte site for your GA-EP45-UD3P rev1.0 since you did not indicate which base bios you wanted to modify such as the beta 11d which works with SSDs. You also did not indicate if you needed an SLIC so the mod consists of just the following updates:

ICH10R southbridge - v13.1.0.2030
8111C ethernet - rtegrom258.lom
SATA2 chip - jmb362_C_1.07.28
AHCI-pchahci_1.20E

The v13.1.0.2030 option ROM above worked with RST 12 series as well as the latest RST 13.0.0.1072 beta in my rev 1.6 version of this MB so I expect similar success in your revision as well. The option ROM update will allow you to see the full storage capacity of your 4TB drive in the bios.

Wow, thanks! I didn't even know about any of the other stuff. (You're shocked, I know...) Guess I need to dig into it a little.
