Several sources claim that there is a one terabyte "soft" limit, but that with modifications to the default setup you can quadruple that or even more. And, of course, now we have ufs2 ... Personally, I hope to never have to back up that much information [unless maybe I'm paid by the byte?] ;-) Kevin Kinsey DaleCo, S.P.
