Anyone hear anything about the status of the 72 gig disks? We're trying to plan for the upcoming year whether we want to get more disks (18's & 36's), new disks (72's), more filers, etc. A quick search of NOW didn't turn anything up.
Try "Disk Support Matrix & Firmware" and you'll find
| Drive Part Descriptions Sysconfig -v Output Firmware Rev. ... | Number (Download) | | X226A/ SP-226A SEA 72 GB HH FCAL NETAPP X226_ST173404FC NA02 (latest) ... | 10K rpm "Cheetah 4" | | X232A/ SP-232A SEA 72 GB HH FCAL NETAPP X232_ST173404FC NA23 (latest) ... | 10K rpm "Cheetah 4" | (520BPS)
for FC9 shelves, supported at release 6.0.1R1 (i.e. just out the door). Also the 6.0.1R1 "Start Here" has a table showing that "72GB" discs are 68000 MB after right-sizing.
