iirc you will setup a new backupserver (x86), start with 15TB and grow
about 50TB.
really x86 and not x86_64 ?

even your filesystem of choice  xfs  can *not* handle  > 16TB on  x86.

Not supported - any metadata access past 16TB will wrap the 32 bit page
cache
index for the metadata address space and you'll corrupt the filesystem.
