It seems to me that Mag is running a somewhat older system. That would explain the problems<br>with expanding ext3 past 8TB.  Perhaps this would be a good excuse to plan an upgrade to the OS, and maybe also the hardware.<br>

</div>... on ext3.  Other filesystems can handle this better; ext4 should<br>
be quite useable up to 16T, others can go larger still.<br>
