Come to think of it, since we are RAID-5 protected, even if we did have to 
replace 10 or more drives in our various iSeries per year I might be 
willing to risk it at the much lower price.  Provided they never happened 
at the same time in the same raid set.  (Like there's any guarantee that 
the mega expensive drives wouldn't.  Last disk message was a card that 
needed reseating that falsely indicated that 14 drives hurled.)
