The ZFS file system uses 128-bit pointers. The minimum mass of a device capable of storing 2^128 bytes using atomic level storage would be about 272 trillion kilograms.


Also if you use Firefox and don't have a good download manager this one has been maxing out my cable modem (1.4Gigs in 30 min): DownThemAll!
