I've recently got a 1TB USB drive... I plugged it in, dd /dev/zero into it, partitioned it with fdisk and set up disklabels, formatted it, mounted it, copied over 500 GB of stuff over it, unmount, unplug...

Well the system is still up and running now...

It is a SATA hard disk inside, and it is 1TB... not sure if that makes the difference.
