ONTAP 8.0 is not limited to 16TB aggregates in 7-mode. The maximum 64 bit aggregate size is platform specific. For instance, here are the maximum 64 bit aggregate sizes for various controller models (listed in the system configuration guide on NOW):
3140 - 40TB 3160 - 50TB 3170 - 70TB 6040 - 70TB 6080 - 100TB

It is my understandign that 8 has two modes: 8-in-7 mode, which still has the annoying 16 TB limit, and 'native' 8-mode which does not have that limit.
