windows 8 - How do I split a 3TB disk into two 1.5TB disk partitions?

I bought a new 250GB SSD drive and a 3TB HDD and I want to use it with Windows 8.1. I have installed Windows on the SSD drive but I can't use my 3TB drive with its full capacity.


What I want is to split my 3TB HDD drive into two 1.5TB disks D:, E:.


This is what I have:


diskpart output


As you can see, the system ignores the 3TB drives and only allows me to create a disk with 1.99TB but that is not what I want. Disk Manager shows the rest of disk space as Unallocated. Diskpart detects the disk as Disk 1 as an (almost) 3TB drive.


So how can I achieve splitting the 3TB drive into two 1.5TB disks?
