DRBD 8.x.y on 32bit linux: 4 TB per drbd. probably also globally not much more possible. DRBD 8.x.y on 64bit linux: 8 TB per drbd. probabaly globally, using multiple devices, much more. DRBD plus 8.x.y on 32bit and 64bit linux: now: 16 TB per drbd; no global limitation I know of. "soon": limited only by available main memory. You need enough RAM in any case.
