The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

Scott,
This machine is certainly capable of running SSDs at 6.1 or 7.1. Now, there are many different SSDs that it can be installed, but based upon what you already have was the BP saying that he couldn't add them to the current configuration, and that he might need to add a draw? That can be the case. You don't want to mix SSD drives and Hard drives on the same disk controller.

Subject: SSDs for POWER6 550
We have a Power 6 550 (8204-E8A) with a 57B7/57B8 storage controller.
It was my understanding that when we purchased this model it was capable of running SSDs but our BP is now telling me that it is not. Is this really that case?
All six slots in the CEC are available for use.
