A mai fost cu ceva timp in urma un post interesant cu topica similara (legat 
de hardware raid + fdisk pentru partitii mai mari de 2TB). Acum citeva 
saptamini gasisem un comparison sheet intre versiunile enterprise de la 
Redhat, unde era prezentat ce stie fiecare distro. Din pacate nu-l mai 
gasesc. Din ce-mi amintesc, RHEL5/CENTOS5 stiu nativ sa lucreze cu astfel de 
volume.

Legat de problema ta:
http://www.unixgods.org/~tilo/larger_2TB.html

Dau si un exemplu acolo cum poti lucra cu parted pentru a crea o partitie de 
4TB.

Iata ce spun ei:

LINUX with Partitions >2TB
Partitioning anything larger than 2TB is very problematic with the standard 
tools.

Although the kernels of FC4, FC5, FC6 all come pre-compiled and pre-configured 
with support for >2TB drives and partitions, a couple of system components 
have a 2TB limit:

    * grub or lilo only understand 'msdos' disk labels - this means that you 
can not boot from a GPT disk label.
    * 'msdos' disk labels can not handle partitions or drives larger than 2TB
    * fdisk can not handle drives or partitions larger than 2TB -- even if you 
manage to partition a >2TB drive with parted, don't use fdisk to display it - 
fdisk will lie about the partitioning.
    * LVM can not handle logical volumes larger than 2TB
    * the linux installer(s) can typically not handle "gpt" disk labels, but 
only "msdos" disk labels - both because of "grub" and the partitioning tools 
used

The following system components do not have the 2TB limit:

    * the kernel can usually handle >2TB without problems
    * "gpt" disk lables can handle >2TB drives and partitions
    * "parted" can handle >2TB drives and partitions --- but be careful:  
parted writes directly to the disk!!! RTFM!

So with a little planning and trickery you can create and use >2TB partitions.

Once you have your system running with the correct firmware/BIOS and the 
correct drivers, you need to decide if you want to use Software or Hardware 
RAID, and then you need to create and carve out the logical disk drives for 
your system, so you can install your OS and the data partitions

Have Fun!
