Importance: Normal The general rule of thumb is take the largest drive size (in this case 8G or 17G) and use the range of 7 minutes to 15 minutes per G. Since only 64 units are processed at one time take the number of units / 64 ( add 1 if there is a remainder) and multiply. These number are estimates only. Adds can be done during normal operations so this does not have to be down time. So in this example of 75 units (8*7)*2 - (8*15)*2 112 - 240 (17*7)*2 - (17*15)*2 238 - 510 Glen W.

Mr. Youngren, I was referred to you by a contact on a 400 web site. We are moving several drives from one iSeries to our new 840-2418-1542. Any estimates on how long it will take to initialize the following: qty model 30 6717 45 6718 Robert Berendt, CCP Group Dekko Services, LLC Dept 01.073 PO Box 2000 Dock 108 6928N 400E Kendallville, IN 46755 (219) 347-3100 ext 70560 Fax (219) 349-2005 rob@dekko.com http://www.dekko.com
