Even after Bitlocker had completed encrypting the drive, I restarted the next day, and the drive didn't mount or even show as a Bitlocker drive.
Now it shows the capacity as 768GB (3TB drive). And this is the drive, not a volume (i.e. /disk3), in the Computer Management utility.
I've tried using a GParted live CD, but the GParted executable would close after several error messages. Should I also try DBAN?
Should I just buy a new drive? If Bitlocker said the encryption process completed, and then it doesn't mount or appear as a volume on the next restart, is that a bad sign?
Agreed, something is not able to read past the 2TB limit, therefore the reported size of ~0.72TB which actually is the fake-3TB capacity (real one 2.72TB) minus 2TB. – Overmind – 2018-07-05T10:53:16.777
