A few things I've seen...
1) They format to 68GB... minus 10% for FS... minus snapshots... etc. (Important for planning)
2) They are not listed in the drop down when creating a generic volume in the GUI (at least in 5.3.6 - don't know about 6.x). Therefore, you can't just tell it to create a volume of, say, seven 72GB drives. This can still be done by creating the volume with the option to specify disks. (Just an annoyance that will most likely be fixed in future releases)
Not great info, but it's a place to start.

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. -- Geoff Hardin Dallas Semiconductor MIS UNIX geoff.hardin@dalsemi.com
