Not by a long shot. I just assembled two servers with 168 12TB drives each, giving a bit over 1.5PB available space on each server. And I'm pretty confident that this is also not the largest ZFS-on-Linux deployment either.

How do you fit 168 hard drives into a single computer?

A couple of 84-drive 5U rack-mount enclosures, attached to each server with multi-link SAS. It's a fairly off-the-shelf system.

Damn, what is the use case for that?

Porn.
