    My IBM business partner can not tell if and what model of RAID cards works
    with 7025-F50 and 36Gb Hot Swap drives. It appears that 36Gb drives will
    work with the latest F50 microcode. The question is, will it work under :

    2493 SCSI-2 F/W PCI RAID Adapter
    2494 PCI 3-Channel Ultra SCSI Raid Adapter
    2498 PCI 4-Channel Ultra3 SCSI RAID Adapter

    Is anyone using 36Gb hot swap drives with any of those RAID controllers or
    better yet with any RAID controller and the F50.

    According to my IBM business partner, IBM can not conclusively give them the
    information.

    Thanks,

    Marcelino
