The Be File System uses 64-bit addressing, and can handle volumes and files with sizes measured in petabytes (a thousand terabytes).

Even digitizing the entire "Friday the 13th" horror movie series wouldn't create a file this large. Of course, that could change if they make more movies. A lot more movies. ;-)
