Curious, what happens with older NetApps - is there a way to re-purpose them that makes sense?
I have been told that the DS14MK2-AT shelves can be used as JBOD disk shelves with regular non-Netapp-firmwared drives - is this true? If so, would it support the >2TB drives that are out these days?
(I have access to a 6 or 7 shelf 3070 with 56x1TB drives and some 500GB's ; what scares me is not the size of the rack, but the size of the likely power bill! )
Cheers
Patrick
