Thats true on XP32 (the 2tb limit) its because XP32 doesnt support the GUID partition tables and the 2tb becomes a limit of the MBR.

WHS is based on Windows 2003 server and wouldn't have that limit for GUID partitioned drives.

If your asking about the extender and plugging in multiple <2tb drives, it also spans properly to >2tb (Im running 4.5tb on WHS)
