This is a known issue with Microsoft's initiator that can handle 2TB or less . In other OS's i.e. Linux versions can see greater then 2TB. But you can use support GPT (GUID Partition Table). See the Microsoft GPT FAQ for a list operating systems that support GPT. When you first connect to a raw LUN that is larger than 2 TB with a GPT the disk will show up in disk management as unknown/not initialized. Right click on the disk and select Convert to GPT. Now you can have greater then 2TB. Please read the Microsoft GPT information.
Of cause you can create dynamic volumes.
