Hard Drive Configuration with RAID 10 requires a maximum total Hard Drive capacity of 3600GB???

When pricing out a 2950 PERC6i with 4 1TB SAS drives it gives this error when
trying to set the configuration to RAID 10:

Errors:  Hard Drive Configuration with RAID 10 requires a maximum total Hard
Drive capacity of 3600GB.


Where does this limit come from?


I have 2 2950 servers with 4 1TB drives using the SAS/6i controller.  I want
to install a PERC6 addon PCIe and connect it to the 4 drives.  The online
"Build Your System" suggests that there will be a problem doing this so I'm a
bit worried.  Anyone on this list running a 2950 with 4 1TB SAS drives?

Thanks!
