<p>When the UFS filesystem was introduced to BSD in 1982, its use of 32
bit offsets and counters to address the storage was considered to be
ahead of its time. Since most fixed-disk storage devices use 512 byte
sectors, 32 bits allowed for 2 Terabytes of storage. That was an almost

un-imaginable quantity for the time. But now that 250 and 400 Gigabyte
disks are available at consumer prices, it's trivial to build a hardware
or software based storage array that can exceed 2TB for a few thousand

<h2>Testing large capacities</h2>
<p>Even though large drives are cheap, it still isn't always feasible or
economical to test on real hardware. Swap-backed memory disks, via the
md(4) driver, can provide a good substitute for some of the testing.
md(4) driver, can provide a good substitute for some of the testing.
Backing with swap means that only the pages that are dirtied by data
are actually allocated, so a multi-terabyte storage can be simulated
with a minimal amount of physical RAM+swap. Note that this is less true with
