I wanted to turn a machine into a nfs server, zo i bought some 3TB disks. However, i was told that there seems to be a machical boundry at 2TB, which is alleged to be solved by grub2.
A 3 TB disk has to be mainly for data storage, as also indicated by its intended use. Personally, I always use a separate system disk on machines with large data disks. Years ago I was told that this was an especially good idea for NFS performance, but I don't remember why and I expect it may have changed. But I find it easier to manage disk replacements when the system disk does not contain main data stores and vice-versa. And I also don't have a problem with booting off large disks. Just my 2p worth.
