    i know you can have a drawer full of 36s and a drawer full of 72s in the same configuration...not sure if you can mix within a drawer.

    Subject: sort of near OT - FastT drive usage

    Its only sort of off topic, since we only use this with AIX, and I don't
    know the hardware very well:

    The FastT700. We're configuring one for use with 36 Gb drives (we need lots
    of spindles, not lots of space). If we go this way and 36Gb drives become
    hard to find in the future lifetime of this thing, can you plug in larger
    drives that would be used as 36Gb drives like the RAIDiant arrays do? We
    don't want to be trapped into putting down tons of bucks for what should
    have been a single drive.

    Many thanks for tolerating the veering away and sorry for the long
    disclaimer.
