Previously, RAID controllers and file systems had a 2TB limit. The limit on the controller, mainly refers to each LUN can not be greater than 2TB, and disk groups generally do not have this limit, the file system limit is mainly refers to each partition (partition) can not be greater than 2TB, but 32-bit Windows requires a physical disk can not be greater than 2TB. Now, the controller has less of this limit, but often the common file system is still frequently have this problem.
? NTFS (Windows): Supports maximum partition 2TB, maximum file 2TB;
? FAT16 (Windows): Support maximum partition 2GB, maximum file 2GB;
? FAT32 (Windows): Support maximum partition 128GB, maximum file 4GB;
? HPFS (OS/2): Support maximum partition 2TB, maximum file 2GB;
? EXT2 and EXT3 (Linux): Support maximum partition 4TB, maximum file 2GB;
? JFS (AIX): Supports maximum partition 4P (block size=4k), maximum file 4P;
? XFS (IRIX): This is a serious 64-bit file system that can support partitions of 9E (2 of 63);
What is the maximum number of individual file sizes supported by FAT32 and NTFS?
