It works fine:
Total: 1 VG 1 PV 18 LVs (18 LVs open 18 times)
Global: 1088155 bytes malloced IOP version: 10 178 days 23:22:40 active
VG: nas [1 PV, 18 LV/18 open] PE Size: 16384 KB
Usage [KB/PE]: 1101643776 /67239 total 1101643776 /67239 used 0 /0 free
PV: [AA] sda9 1101643776 /67239 1101643776 /67239 0 /0
This is a 1TB array on a 3w7850 (now called a 7500-8) card with 8
Maxtor 160GB disks. I've made volumes up over 500GB on these, have
resized volumes and filesystems, deleted volumes, etc. all with the
machines live and have experienced absolutely no problems. This
machine is running (approximately) one of the Red Hat 7.3 beta
releases.
I also have LVM on top of software RAID5 on top of an old 3w6800 card
running in JBOD mode with 8 75GB IBM deathstars. It works fine when
the disks are actually working (which is rarely).
