Fitting SATA HDD to MX-760HD

See this thread in the forums.
Note that the firmware for the MV-range (4000, 5000, 6000) appears not to be able to view a HDD size of 1TB using an adapter in this manner, but reformatting into 2 x 500GB repartitions appears to do the trick. The MX-760 doesn't appear to suffer from this issue.
