DASD failure

Hello all,

Our company has about 40 AS/400 in north america. The machines are betwen 1 and 
4 years old. In the last 6 months, we had to replace 5 disk due to failure 
(crashed). To me this number of crash seems High but IBM told us this was 
noting out of the ordinary.

I dont have the number but i tought that the mean time between failure of the 
AS/400 was much greater.

What do you think?
