RE: 510 v 170 disk drives

[Chris Bipes <chris.bipes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I know that you have a 170.  I only know of my experience with the 720.
Perhaps a 170 would accept the old 2 gig drives, but I highly doubt it.  The
model 400 uses the 6606 drives, we have 10 of them in ours.  I think when
you get to the PCI models, you had to use the 4G or larger.

Also the 6607-050 means it is part of a raid set but does not contain the
striping.  I believe 072 has some striping and 074 had more striping.
Unprotected or mirrored drives are generally 030 which show the full
capacity of the drive.

Thanks Chris.  That's interesting -- if I stopped RAID on all drives, the
6607-074's would then show up as 6607-050's?  Btw, the intention is to put
these into a 170, not a 720.
