FreeBSD should expect 2-4TB filesystems to be in common use in peoples _living rooms_, never mind in the office or datacenter. So 5.x was a total wash in terms of UFS2 and snapshots, largefiles, etc., 6.0 still doesn't have working filesystem quotas or snapshots, and it seems, doesn't support modern (circa 2004) hard drives. Maybe a little less time working on FreeBSD 23.0 ... ?
