Subject:   FreeBSD filesystem 1TB Limit

IIRC There was a 1TB limit on the size of any filesystem (or actually of any
block device) in FreeBSD based the kernel internaly using a 512 byte block
size and having a max of 2^31 blocks. (512*2^31 = 2^40 = 1TB)

Do I remember correctly?

Is this still the case?

A client wants to build a system with over 1TB on a single filesystem and I
need to see if FreeBSD can support it.

Thanks for your time.
