I think you might need an updated OS3.9 system for HDToolBox to work correctly. I might be wrong. I saw that a couple of months ago when trying to install OS3.9 (using WinUAE) on an old 300GB hdd of mine that I found. After HdToolBox did not see the hdd size correctly, I tried configuring it with boingbag1+2 updated Amikit installation of mine and it read the geometry of the hdd properly. Plugged the hdd to my A1200 (with FastAta1200) and everything worked perfectly. Then I found that the big partion I made after the first 3.9gb part was full of bad sectors and the hdd got stuck trying to write some files when copying a large iso file.
That's why I'm looking for an unused 500gb or 320gb IDE hard drive at the moment.
