One of my SS20s has been running for years with no visible issues with

sd0 at scsibus0 targ 1 lun 0: <SEAGATE, ST336607LC, 0006> SCSI3 0/direct fixed
sd0: 35003 MB, 49855 cyl, 2 head, 718 sec, 512 bytes/sect x 71687372 sectors

I do have a small boot partition at the beginning of the disk to hold
the bootblocks and kernel, but the hardware has no problems with large
disks.
