It seems to me that scsi_da.c reports the wrong size:

da1 at mpt0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0
da1: <SILVER TN-6212S-U4D 347G> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-5 device
da1: 320.000MB/s transfers (160.000MHz, offset 127, 16bit), Tagged
Queueing Enabled
da1: 0MB (1 0 byte sectors: 0H 0S/T 0C)

While geom shows the right one:

Geom name: da1
Providers:
1. Name: da1
   Mediasize: 4991221760000 (4.5T)
   Sectorsize: 512
   Mode: r0w0e0
   fwsectors: 63
   fwheads: 255

Speaking of bigdisk, can gpt modify on-disk table on-fly?
