Solaris 10 update 1 (1/06 release) supports SCSI disks larger than 2 TB. I believe that the same is true for IDE (as long as your controller supports 48-bit LBA).
The initial release of Solaris 10 has a 2 TB limit for 64-bit kernels, 1 TB for 32-bit kernels (or so the documentation claims, though this seems odd to me). Solaris 9, as of the 04/03 release (for many years, then) also has 2 TB support on 64-bit kernels. To use a disk this large, though, you need to use EFI labels -- it sounds like your friend was using the standard VTOC.
