    Depends on whether you plan on crashing or not :) According to
    http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-fs/2003-July/000181.html,
    you may not want to create filesystems over 3TB if you want fsck to
    succeed. I don't know if that's using the default newfs settings
    (which would create an insane number of inodes), though.

    - This is a big problem (no pun intended), my smallest requirement is still
    5TB... what would you recommend? The smallest file on the storage will be
    500MB.

    To sustain only 30MByte/s across the entire set? Doesn't really
    matter, since even a single disk could do that.

    - What would I see better performance with ccd or vinum? So a better
    question isn't if I can sustain with 30MByte/s but what would I expect to
    maintain?
