With mkfs.ext4 from 1.41.14, it is not possible to create a filesystem
which is bigger than 16 TB:
mkfs.ext4: Size of device /dev/sdb too big to be expressed in 32 bits
using a blocksize of 4096.
But I see it succeeds with the latest git version of e2fsprogs.
The question is: how reliable such a filesystem is?
On a system which is supposed to be reliable, perhaps I'll be better off
with xfs for such large filesystems?
I'm using Debian Squeeze, which has a 2.6.32 kernel.
