The Data Offset field in the Dynamic Disk Header is an 8 byte field. Although the specification (2006-10-11) gives an example of initializing only the first 4 bytes, images generated by Microsoft on Windows initialize all 8 bytes.
Failure to initialize all 8 bytes results in errors from utilities that check specifically for the complete Data Offset field initialization.
