Sounds like the "Cylinder Limitation" jumper (J46) is closed. The
product manual says:

     On some older BIOS', primarily those that auto-configure the
     disk drive, a hang may occur. The Cylinder Limitation jumper
     reduces the capacity in the Identify Drive allowing large
     capacity drives to work with older BIOS'. The capacity
     reported when J46 is closed will be as follows: drives less
     than or equal to 32GB will report 2.1GB. Drives greater than
     32GB will report 32GB.
