I created a 2Tb volume within the raid set and booted off that without issue in the end. On Linux and FreeBSD I had to use GPT support for the larger partitions. Coincidentally, the culprit of the mystery crashes that I was having may have been a dodgy power supply (it went off with an impressive bang yesterday). It had been fine on i386 booting directly from the Areca for a few weeks now tho.
