Problem with WD Advanced Format drive in LINUX (WD15EARS)

Hello,

I’m trying to format my new WD15EARS but I’m having some trouble with it. Could someone help me out on this issue?

This is what I’d like to obtain :

(I hope my calculations are correct)

Since I’d like to have more than 4 partitions on this HDD for pratical purposes, I have to use Extended partitions (noted (E) above) to cram two logical drives inside. I can’t figure out how to do this in Parted, and other tools did not allow me to align properly the partitions.

I tried to use GParted to set up the partitions as I wanted, all in Fat32, then tried to use WDAlign to align the partitions and expected to change their format after that. The WD Align tool did not work, the first partition started at 63 (which is bad).

Any help would be appreciated !

Thanks
