But I can not create a 3TB slice. I created the partition in FDISK named da2s1 with a size of 2861178MB (Box A&B in ref img attached). I then used the DiskLabel Editor to create a slice with a size of 2794GB (Box C) Looking at the DEV folder I notice two slices have been created da2s1c & da2s1d (Box D&E) I run 'df -h' to view the size of the D-slice, and it shows as only 723G (box F) I confirm this by re-entering the Label Editor and the slice is now shown as 746GB (Box G), and there is no slice named da2s1c. What could be going wrong here? Kindest regards --0016360e3d188a67c9046ed178c1--
