If I understood it correctly this should give you (at least!) 2^48 = 256 TBytes. But I myself would like to know if this calculation is correct. (or is it 2^48 blocks?) If my assumtion is correct then this would be a great time to update the corresponding section in the FAQ :) (hey! this is one of these updates that actually fill you with pride :))) greetings, aaron.
