Hi,

Could some one recommend which File System is best for partitions above
600GB?
I am considering XFS. The System is Debian Sarge for amd64.

Why?  Sarge on that is definitely not supported.  You should
definitely go with Etch.

This is true, but the OP's question goes unanswered.

I'd like to know, also: Are there any device size limits or issues for the various filesystem types available? And a corollary: are there reliability/speed/seek/read/write differences that would have an impact on performance as the size increases? I think these are valid questions, regardless of the Linux version being discussed.
