We have an assortment of 6607 models 072, 074, and a single 070 on both of our 2 model 640s. One has 85 disks, the other has 120 disks. Since they were installed (Nov-Dec '97) we have replaced about 4-5 drives between the 2 machines. Most of them happened in the first month or so; things have 'quieted down' since then (at least 3-4 months of no problems). We didn't lose any uptime or data due to these problems; the RAID did protect us. --Paul E Musselman PaulMmn@ix.netcom.com +--- | This is the Midrange System Mailing List! | To submit a new message, send your mail to MIDRANGE-L@midrange.com. | To unsubscribe from this list send email to MIDRANGE-L-UNSUB@midrange.com. | Questions should be directed to the list owner/operator: david@midrange.com +---
