Follow-up Comment #1, bug #39216 (project grub):

Hi,
it looks like BIOS problem. Older BIOSes cannot handle such big devices (and
GRUB depends on BIOS services). For example BIOS freezes on my machine before
loading any bootloader if I connect 1TB USB hard drive.
If You don't use this USB hard drive as booting device, You maybe can avoid
this problem - try disable masstorage related USB part in BIOS, i.e. booting
from USB devices or Legacy USB Support etc.
BR,
Ales
