This message is generated by sd when a disk is larger than 2 TB. Does it need to be? Could it be a logging message?

It is also badly worded as the imperative "try" suggests that the user needs to find a utility that sends a READ CAPACITY(16). And I was recently contacted by a user with that in mind.
