    That's interesting.

    You were able to boot with just disk 0 connected, correct?

    Cool. I'm not sure why Windows isn't letting you convert.

    You can wipe the 3TB drive from the Windows Setup DVD. Only connect your 3TB drive, boot to Windows Setup, open a command prompt, and do:
    1. list disk (make sure the 3TB drive is disk 0)
    2. select disk 0
    3. clean
    4. exit

    Then you can shut down and plug your boot drive back in.
