I have had my WNR3500L for several months now.  I have used the Readyshare capability with a 500GB drive successfully for quite sometime.  I just got a new 3TB drive and was dismayed to find that it would not mount.  Only after partitioning it into 3 x 1TB partitions did it work at all, but only mounted the first partition.  I cannot find any documentation pointing to this 1TB limit I am experiencing.

Is this a hardware limitation (sadness) or one that can be addressed with a new firmware?

Either way, why would this limitation be acceptable on such an otherwise excellent product?

Thanks!
