Unable to snapshot 2TB drive

$

I created a virtual machine with 2TB drives. I tried to take a snapshot of it. It failed. I did some searching for the problem. I found out VMware does not support taking a snapshot of a drive over 1.95TB. Why wasn't I warned about this when I created the virtual drives? That seems like an obvious thing to do. Instead, I get a response from VMware that I was stupid to create the 2TB drives. Thank you. (That is sarcasim if anybody didn't figure that out.) Is there any plans to fix this problem or did VMware just screw me and a lot of other people?

 

It appears I have to recreate the virtual machine and copy the files to the new one. I guess I could try VConverter but I don't have much faith it will work because one of the 2TB partitions is full.
