I think the maximum size of a disk is much larger, cause the disk is addressed in blocks of 512 byte and the Amiga is able to address upto 2 billion of these blocks. I would try to split the hd into partitions of less than 2GB, that should work.

...But this only applies when using TD64, NSD or DirectSCSI. None of these is available for KS 1.3.

Do not try to use >4GB (or 2GB, as the old filesystems and devices migth have had sign issues) with KS 1.3, all you get is dataloss.
