This can be solved by using the PFS3 all-in-one filesystem. This supports
DirectSCSI, TD64 and NSD for partition data located after the 4GB and
warpdrive.device supports DirectSCSI :).

Older HDToolBox works fine for partitioning these large drives as long as you
remember that it wraps the displayed size every 2GB. It counts in cylinders
internally, so if you first create small partitions and get a feeling for how
many cylinders say 100MB are worth, then enter the approximate number of
"Total Cyl" for whatever size you want the partitions to be.

I am actually CoSysOp on a BBS where we are running a WarpEngine 3040 card in
an A4000 which has an Acard SCSI->IDE bridge connected to it with an IDE->SATA
adapter and a 24GB mSATA SSD. Works like a charm with PFS3.
