This option is required to support the full capacity of large
(2TB+) block devices, including RAID, disk, Network Block Device,
Logical Volume Manager (LVM) and loopback.

- For example, RAID devices are frequently bigger than the capacity
- of the largest individual hard drive.

- This option is not required if you have individual disk drives
- which total 2TB+ and you are not aggregating the capacity into

+ This option also enables support for single files larger than
+ 2TB.
