What type of RAID?
Software?
Hardware?
JBOD?

If you're using software RAID, fdisk 2TB limit is no problem, as you
will be partitioning one drive at a time.
More-ever, put lvm on top of the RAID array; The performance hit is
negligible and it adds immense flexibility.

I second the parted suggestion. It's the only partitioning tool capable
of handing >2TB RAW partitions.
