I would agree with that.... Even a 1990s G3 Mac can address an 8TB FireWire hard drive volume without issue.
We also see no issue with SATA and SATA II controllers in any Mac (where that controller is compatible...) and Mac OS regardless of single volume size (including externals up to 8TB which are represented as single drive - not port multiplier split - so it sees it like it's a single 8TB hard drive)...
Should not be an issue at all.

It looks like it's only the archaic formatting used by windows up until win7 that is the problem. Pretty darned sure that this poses no problems for any mac that can now take a 2TB drive.
