I would say Solaris/OpenSolaris as I believe ZFS is not as stable and reliable on the others... In any case, if you really have a multi-TB backup deployment I believe you are big enough to afford running OpenSolaris on a dedicated machine. This is also something that will be addressed on the next few years on Linux, as there are currently several improved filesystems being developed on that platform (ext4, btrfs, NILFS, Tux3) that will certainly address this need on the Linux platform as well.
