6817 is 2-byte ultra SCSI.  6713 is also 2-byte ultra SCSI but is only 
supported in the 170 system unit and 7101 or 7102 system expansion unit. 

What processor do you have?  With that information, I can tell you exactly 
what disks and IOP's will work.  FYI, I am a a vendor.

Thanks,

Does any one know the difference between a 6717 and 6817 disk drive?  They
are both 8.58G 10K drives.  We have a 6713, 8.58G 7200rpm in our 170-2291
with 5.1.  I am looking at replacing the 6607's with 10K drives.  The IBM
links does not show the 67xx drives for the 170 but show the 68xx drives.
The 67xx drive must work cause we have one working.  Is the interface
different?  Ultra2 vs. Ultra3 or something to that effect.  Will I need to
upgrade the DASD controller from the MFIOP to a 2741 to support the 68xx
drives?  What I am interested in is changing the 4G to 8.5G 10k drives. 
The
price is the same for both the 6717 and 6817 drives so I want to know the
difference.  Is it just the mounting kit?  Cause it don't matter to me 
since
I will be replacing existing drives and can swap the mountings.
