Anybody any experience with ext3 on filesystems >8Tb.
Chikama pointed me to the explanation on why this doesn't work with 
reiserfs.

But now I need to figure out which filesystem I will use.
Testing reveals that ext3 is pretty fast:

However I have no clue how ext3 behaves with >8Tb filesystems.

Anybody ?
