Might be true.  4T can be expressed as a 32-bit number whereas 5.5T 
can't.  Is there a change-log or bug-report anywhere that shows a 32/64 
problem has been fixed with the file system?  (The normal change-logs 
don't mention it). Upgrading is be a *HUGE* pain in this case.  I'd like 
to confirm an upgrade is known to fix this problem before upgrading.  
This system is used in the enterprise by about 180 people (literally) 
with a custom front end.  Downtime (or possible loss of media) is not 
practical.
