Joan,

I think many DASD resellers can help you determine if you have slots
space available.  I found them very helpful to determine the type/size
of disks my system supported.

I recently purchased through Todd Robinett at Bytek Corp.  I used them
primarily due to price.  Here is contact info:

Your mileage may vary.

Thanks to all for your advice. Ultimately, we're going to need to buy a
new system - this one is approaching its fifth birthday and was sized to
a smaller MAPICS utilization than we currently have. Our memory was
maxed a couple of years ago and I added a couple of DASD then - been
looking on the Web and DASD for my machine is cheap enough to buy with
my credit card!

Anyone know a source where I can check how many more drives I can put in
my AS/400? I've beat my head against the proverbial brick wall on the
IBM support site - can't find a conf. page to save my soul!

I had looked at FAST400 some time ago, but got the impression that IBM
considers it illegal and breaking all sorts of contract clauses to use
it. Any thoughts on this (those of you who use it, and those who know of
it and don't use it)?

Thanks again - Joan
