I have a RAID 5 array with 3 TB drives. When reading through the list
I realized that the v0.90 superblock doesn't support arrays over 2TB.
This means I can never grow this array to 4 drives?

That's my understanding, yes.

I grew 400GiB drives in a raid5 configuration from 1.8TiB to 3.3TiB one at a time with the 0.90 superblock (I believe), is that limit correct?

My understanding is that the 2TB limit on 0.90 superblocks, is for md component size, not md device size.
