RE: DASD failure

[Neil Palmer <npalmer@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

You must mean 9332 400's and 600's.
They were the original disk for the 9406 B30-B60 models (along with the
9335's) back in 1988 !
You could probably afford new disks just from the power savings you'd
have by dumping them.
Those things should have been sent to the scrap heap years ago.   :-)
