#2 4KB USB (2.5tb or 3tb) Sector Size Support?

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Plug in a 2.5tb hard drive that is 2tb or larger or that has 4kb sector size.
2. Start an application that uses libntfs (Wiimc, homebrew channel, ect.)
3. When trying to initialize the USB Device, the Wii will crash.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The homebrew  application will launch as normal.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
WiiMC 1.8 (I've already compiled that latest libntfs and compiled it with WiiMC, still code dump)

Please provide any additional information below.
I attached the code dump pic.
If you need any more information just let me know.
My usb is formatted as NTFS
Hope this is fixed soon.

The library supports it. The problem is that WiiMC does not support it when searching for an NTFS partition. Report this issue on WiiMC. HBC does not support NTFS at all.
Also libogc has no function right now to get the sector size for a drive which is why it is not supported in WiiMC.

I made a custom USB handler and tested this. The library definately supports sector sizes of 4kb.

A size of > 2 TB is also not supported by the current libogc USB implementation. Nothing I can do about.

The bugs you mentioned are bugs not related to the filesystem and the libntfs library but the USB handles.

Status: Invalid
