That has a CPU which supports 32GB of RAM in 2 DIMMs, yet the machine did not. And just because a CPU and Chipset do, doesn't mean the firmware employed does.
Just because Intel supports something on the CPU doesn't mean the chipset does. Something I learned with an older machine of mine. And this, I suspect, is going to prove to be your primary hold up. So then we move on to chipset and/or firmware limitations.
As the LBA48 standard was set in 2002, and has a limit of some 128PB. Which, again should not be an issue here. Then we have LBA translation limitations. I frankly, don't expect my Lenovo W520 with an extremely early Sandy Bridge UEFI to cope well with such things, for example. UEFI should not, depending on the type of UEFI involved. Legacy BIOS has a 2TB boot drive limitation. Historically, hard drive size limits are based on a number of factors, some more important than others.
