This exceeds the max capacity of the F740. You could get away with 3x FC9 shelves with 36GB drives and 2x shelves with 18GB drives. See http://now.netapp.com/NOW/knowledge/docs/hardware/NetApp/syscfg/scdot612/ind ex.htm.

I have an F740 with 3 FC9 shelves loaded with 18gig drives. I have 3 FC9 shelves loaded with 36gig drives from another netapp I want to move to the F740.
If I add these drives to an existing volume but make them their own raid group, and leave one 36gig spare, that will not cause me any heartache will it?
