No. Not "that size".

See mail from Edward Martinez; "info about Solaris and the new
4K-Sector-Disks (e.g. WDxxEARS)"; 2011-02-09 in this mailing list or
google for "4k sectors zfs" and "4k sectors bios".

Bottom line: Do not use WDxxEARS and do not boot from disk with size
greater than 2 TB and you should be fine.

HTH,
Jo
