isn't 2TB a filesystem limitation not a block device? at least for IDE I am sure the 32bit addressing tops out at about 137GB that doesn't stop someone from making a big array of disks smaller then 137GB to equal a logical volume of larger.. e.g. I built several systems with 6disk raid10 arrays totalling 220GB each no problem. I'm no good at math so I am just repeating what I have read on my forums, websites and stuff. nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
