hi:
ive been trying to use the file slicer feature on making backup. but the biggest is 7.5gib slices for the output image. how do i get 2tib or even 8tib slices. being able to make a super nice image of a jumbo raid is a very nice thing.

You can type in what you want.

In the File Size window, just type 2T or 8T (or whatever size you want, only the first letter of the unit is required). It even seems* to understand P and E as Petabytes & Exabytes (but not Z or Y as Zettabytes or Yottabytes, at least not yet).

*I say seems since it then displays P as PiB and E as EiB, but I don't have the hardware to test anything that size. If you happen to have some Petabyte drives you want to give me, I'll be glad run the test! :-)
