'Larry's Form Factor'  Special for me because I said so. :-)

Or Large Form Factor meaning 3.5".  There are some SAN disk especially 
with monster sizes like 6 and 8TB that are used for large capacity like 
video surveillance or archiving.

IBM also announced some new EXP12 drawers that hold these guys. Not sure 
if they are supported for i though. Have to look.
