It's an 8262-41A on 7.3.  I don't use the HMC much at all because I'm 
not the hardware guy.  My hardware expertise, such as it is, pretty much 
stalled out with the model 270.  However, I've been sort of side-tracked 
into it while reviewing performance issues and I do, I tend to dig a 
little when I see something that doesn't make sense.  In this case, I 
was just trying to see how much SSD we had and that ran me down this 
particular rabbit hole.
