Product: HPE-450F
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

I plug data cord into the SATA 2 slot. When I turned on the computer the drive sshowed up that it was only 746.39GB. 

 

Does my mother board model MS-7613 (lona-GL8E) support a 3TB Sata HD. I'm just wanting to use the drive as storage.
