They are in the list but don't buy 'em! Even for test and dev those things are slow. At least get the 15K Drives and a few more of them. For test and dev you may find that the read intensive SSDs will work for you also yilding vast leaps in performance at reasonable cost.

Hi Techies.

Looking at (competing) quotes for a new S914 (P9) dev. machine:

one BP configures 1.1TB 10K RPM SAS SSF-3 disks
the other BP says these disks are not configurable for S914 IBM i machines.

Who is correct?

TIA
