    SCSI HardDrive Capacity Detected Lower is low

    I have a 146GB Fujitsu being reported by the Adaptec verify utility as 8192MB.
    Also a 73GB IBM Drive being reported as 4414MB.

    The Adaptec card reports other drives correctly, this problem is with the Drive's BIOS, I think.

    If I run GPARted, the 73GB drive shows up as one 68GB unallocated partition.
    What's happening here and is there a way to rectify this?

    Is the Adaptec controller updated to the latest available firmware ? - sounds like incompatibility between controller firmware and those two drives
    better to keep quiet and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt

      This don't make sense unless the controller is from 1998 or older.

      Or HPA being set on the HDD.
