Hi,
I have a couple of questions.
The first is regarding spare disks. I'm going to have a fully loaded F810 soon; 2 shelves with a total of twenty-one 72GB drives. Since I will have spare slots in the shelves I was wondering if I can setup the netapp with a 22nd drive as a hot-spare instead of "wasting" one out of my 21 disk pool. The specs on the F810 say it maxes out at 1.5 TB raw which I will be hitting with the 21 drives.
And a much more general question; what does SnapRestore do? I believe this is a separately licensed option and I haven't really been able to glean too much from the Netapp website.
Thanks.
