We're starting to plan our 7.1 => 7.3 upgrade, and the current plan is for me to do the upgrade (our BP has always done it before).

I'm hoping I'm misreading the disk space requirements. As I read this section, I need 70 GB on my single partition 720 for 7.3. That would put me at an uncomfortable level.

Load-source disk unit requirements
v IBM i 7.3 load-source disk size needs to be at least 35-70 GB depending on the type of disk being used.
- Minimum of 35 GB for 520-byte sectors (DS8000, virtual disks with VIOS as server)
- Minimum of 40 GB for 512-byte sectors (SVC, Storwize, virtual disks with VIOS, VSCSI, or IBM i as
server)
- Minimum of 70 GB for Native-attached SAS/SCSI (520-byte or 4K sectors)
