No Can Do on the 432x guys though. 15K RPM disks won't respond in there as they draw too much power. I had it up with 4319's so 35G per toss.

I tried 4326's but they showed up as 'generic SCSI disk' and in querying IBM they indicated it was unlikely the power supplies would last nor would the drives remain cool.

oh, by the way... 45 disks? Using 4327 disks at V5R2 gives a reasonable amount of storage,
didn't test with 4328...

Then you did it wrong. :-) Frankie had 3 for a LONG time with 45 drives spinning!
