I am pretty sure that an F50 has either 16 or 18 internal drive bays. I
don't have an F50 anymore to check this on though. Also, I think you will
have trouble finding 9.1 GB drives. Heck, I was just looking for internal
drives for some old RS/6000's and I could find 18.2 GB disks, but they were
more expensive than the 36 GB ones we found, and the 72 GB were only like
$50-$100 more than the 18''s.

Subject: RS/6000 F50 Disk capacity question
Admins,
We currently have a RS/6000 with 11 internal drives (hdisk0 - hdisk10).
Doing a bootinfo -s hdisk# give the following information.
hdisk0 - 4303
hdisk1 - 4303
hdisk2 - 4303
hdisk3 - 4303
hdisk4 - 4303
hdisk5 - 4303
hdisk6 - 4303
hdisk7 - 8689
hdisk8 - 8689
hdisk8 - 8689
hdisk10 - 8689
I am not sure what the capacity of this machine is. We were asked to
investigate and see if we could add two more 9 G drives to this. Would this
be capable on this machine? Thank you for your help.
Larry
