I bought the wrong HDD, and need to set the HDD to under 1tb for it to work, I tried partitioning but for what im using it for it wont work. I need to make the disc think its under 1tb than 1.5tb

thanks

Well if that's true then you're out of luck :(

Sell or return the drive and get a 1TB, the greenpower ones might be a good idea since they're 5400rpm (quieter and cooler running).
