You're neglecting RAID cards, which can present a single "disk" to the
BIOS and operating system. One 8 port 3ware card plus six 400GB disks
costs, oh, about $1500. That's not inexpensive but it's well within the
realms of reason.
Plenty of people have these systems right now. Problems with >2TB
devices haven't been theoretical for a few years now.
