I tried out a couple of 146G drives in the SSA I have here. The results
look pretty promising:
Total disk cylinders available: 65533 + 2 (reserved cylinders)
Part Tag Flag Cylinders Size Blocks
0 root wm 0 - 60 129.62MB (61/0/0) 265472
1 swap wu 61 - 121 129.62MB (61/0/0) 265472
2 backup wu 0 - 65532 135.99GB (65533/0/0) 285199616
3 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0
4 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0
5 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0
6 usr wm 122 - 65532 135.74GB (65411/0/0) 284668672
7 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0
Does this really mean that I can put pretty much any sized disks in this
SSA? 136G x 30 disks is like 4TB or something. Even if the heat is too
much and only half the slots are filled, that is still 2TB. Though, I
have to remember that the array <-> machine interface is 250MB/sec or so?
