Anyone else build anything like a 28TB (or thereabouts) NAS box using

Just curious if the 28TB size presents any unusual problems.
You will want a version of Linux that supports the GPT file system. I
think ext2 and ext3 file systems only support up to 2.2TB. GTP file
system support comes standard on Fedora 19, as well as most other
recently released OS(s).

I have a video security system supplier asking $10,000 (claims it is
his cost) for what I think I can build for $2,500 using Linux and 8 x
4TB drives in a NAS box.
Open to warnings, reproach, and encouragement...
