What is the maximun file size for a file that can reside on the Snap Server?

---Solution---

The limitation on a single file is the following:
-NFS - Limited to 2TB by our file system
-Apple - 2GB
-Novell - 2GB
-SMB (NT-SMBs disabled) - 4GB
-SMB (NT-SMBs enabled) - Limited to 2TB by our file system

Note the maximum number of files per folder on a SnapOS powered Snap Server is 32,000.
File size limitations will be affected by an application's ability to copy large files. For example, a backup application may have a file size limit of 2GB. Please reference the documentation for the particular application you will be using to copy.
