It's reporting that it is a su=4M,sw=2 device, not a device with the physical characteristics you described. If it's LVM, it needs to be configured to align to the underlying storage as well (i.e. 2560kB allocation units and alignment) so that it doesn't cause the filesystem to be misaligned on the disks.... > meta-data=/dev/chwumbo/data isize=512 agcount=728, agsize=268434560 blks > = sectsz=4096 attr=2, projid32bit=1 > = crc=1 finobt=1, sparse=1, rmapbt=0 > = reflink=1 > data = bsize=4096 blocks=195316939776, imaxpct=1 > = sunit=640 swidth=3200 blks > naming =version 2 bsize=4096 ascii-ci=0, ftype=1 > log =internal log bsize=4096 blocks=521728, version=2 > = sectsz=4096 sunit=1 blks, lazy-count=1 > realtime =none extsz=4096 blocks=0, rtextents=0 Otherwise that looks like a normal 728TB filesystem.
