We are planing to use a Seagate Exos Corvault System with 2 PB as the
storage backend for restic backup. It has some hundreds hard disks and
exports them as a single virtual disk (via SAS). Linux sees only a big
SCSI disk. This special RAID is all in hardware, no need for BTRFS
software RAID.

So far my biggest btrfs filesystems have only about 100 TB.

Is 2 PB ok for one btrfs filesystem?
