[Novalug] OT: 2TB Storage (mentioned at meeting)

[Lee Burton]

Well there is always AFS (both openafs/arla).. which supports 
windows/linux/OSX/ some bsds.  It requires a bit more reading and work, but 
once its up and running its very good, and very scalable.  (we have 4 
terabytes of storage on it at work, spread over a bunch of machines.. and I 
have a good half terabyte at home)
