It's shown as 4TB drive with one partition in linux. I managed to find power adapter or NAS, pluged HDD in and it works flawlessly. Thanks everyone for helping 😄

we can see it as 2 different drives with 1.99TB and 1.63TB capacity in GPT.
So it's not the MBR limitation. 

Will try to search for it in my free time. If i find something i will write here.

 

Problem is solved. Issue was likely my old HDD enclosure which probably couldn't recognize such a big drive. When I plugged HDD to desktop PC via SATA, I managed to format it and it showed one partition. After that I plugged it to my NAS and it had no issue recognizing normally.
