Charly, (I love your sig!) With all due respect, I find it hard to believe that a 4gb drive at 90% capacity could perform significantly better than an 8gb drive at 45% capacity, raided or not. How could that happen? > But I don't really think very many folks are using RAID, are they? I think you were TIC here, right? AFAIK, I’m sure most shops are using RAID, and if you’re not counting “mirrored” RAID, you’re still talking significant numbers. At least in my experience. I agree it could be dicey trying to tell the CFO that you need to buy more DASD because you’ve now hit a threshold of 45%! Perhaps the thing to say is the reason to buy more DASD is that disk arm utilization has exceeded a certain threshold. Is there any type of this measurement? Thanks for bearing with me! - Dan Bale (I am *NOT* "Dale" http://archive.midrange.com/midrange-l/200105/msg00281.html )
