WHS itself cannot do more than 2tb drives nor can that MB. you are correct that you can put bigger drives in but it partitions them up as 2tb. that is a nightmare for managing though. I would rather a good guide on something to custom build in a micro atx case that looks like a nas box that can hold 5-8 drives and run freenas or unraid.
Either that or a synology. The few combo's I put together came out to be about 500bux before the unraid license. at that price a synology is the same cost. I also dont know exactly what I am doing hardware wise as far as specs so I may be going overboard. low power consumption, low noise + run mysql for xbmc, plex server for a few devices and sab+sickbeard+couch+headphones.
