I consider that FUD. We have many ext3 filesystems >2T and the run ok. Sure we 
do disable automatic fsck on reboot but we schedule a manual fsck when we get 
the opportunity. IMHO automatic fsck on reboot after, say, 30 boots is a pure 
desktop/laptop thing. When you have servers that stay up you'll have to plan 
for fsck anyway.

As Joshua wrote, there is no filesystem more supported and tried on CentOS...
