Re: New 810 and upgrade paths - IBM announcement 5/13/2003

While I like the things Andy mentioned, the one that I think is most Interesting is the return of internal 8 MM tape!! Yes friends IBM has once again provided an internal 8 MM tape drive with up to 160 GB capacity at 12 MB/sec throughput. It uses the AME type of tapes including the 170M ones you may have around from the 20/40G Mammoth drives, and it's reasonably priced at $2,600. Of course we need a little rain on our 8 MM party: It's not compatible with any previous 8 MM format on iSeries.

My .02!

Friends,

Below is a snippet of today's announcement:

<snip>
Model 810 Enhancements
A new 750 CPW processor feature provides a lower cost entry point for the
Model 810. This new processor feature has the same main storage and I/O
maximums of the existing Model 810, with upgrade capability up to and
including the 2-Way, 2700 CPW Model 810.

Like all model 810s, it can be ordered with either the Standard Edition
or the Enterprise Edition.
