hey all-
in the somewhat pending case that i may not be able to retrieve my data
from RAID 5 unit, I'm wondering what my best option is for blocksize on
a .75TB RAID 5 volume. does the 64k RAID stripe size have any impact on
these figures? It was previously set to the default( 16384 blocksize,
2048 fragment ) without any noticeable perf issues, but i'm just
wondering if, well, size matters? ;)
thanks,
darren david

You shouldn't have any problems. Read about tunefs if you wish, it may
help you.
I have a 6x250gb array (1.25tb RAID5). FBSD 5.2.1 refused to support a
filesystem larger than 1.0tb, so i chunked it into 2 partitions to get
around that problem and then I mounted them back using mount_nullfs so
it appears as though all dirs are on the same partition in a single
directory. Not sure if the 1TB filesystem limit problem is unique to me
or not, but you will be fine with your .75tb no question.
