But IBM has never said that a disk unit in a Power System that works for
one release would not work for the next release in that same system.
There have been a few where a particular load source disk size
requirement changed but the disk itself was still supported. AND you
couldn't start the upgrade if you didn't fix this first.
AND IBM's pre-req checks tell you when you have things that are not
supported. I can recall the QIC-13GB "Wheel Chock" as a tape drive that
fell out of support in early V5 days and there have been a couple other
cards (a particular quad modem comes to mind) but never cratering your
entire disk!

Well, in their defense, doesn't IBM say the same thing? Sure they may
give you notice in the Memo To Users and whatnot.
