Huge drives in Windows

Now that 3TB drives are out I think I should point out that you need to be very careful if you plan on sticking a whole bunch together to get a 16TB or larger drive to show up in Windows:
The maximum size NTFS volume that has been tested by Microsoft is 16 TB. This is for an old style basic disc. If you go with dynamic volumes you won't run into this problem.
