Subject: 36GB HD and 2493,2494 or 2498 controllers

My IBM business partner can not tell if and what model of RAID cards works
with 7025-F50 and 36Gb Hot Swap drives. It appears that 36Gb drives will
work with the latest F50 microcode. The question is, will it work under :

2493 SCSI-2 F/W PCI RAID Adapter
2494 PCI 3-Channel Ultra SCSI Raid Adapter
2498 PCI 4-Channel Ultra3 SCSI RAID Adapter

Is anyone using 36Gb hot swap drives with any of those RAID controllers or
better yet with any RAID controller and the F50.

According to my IBM business partner, IBM can not conclusively give them the
information.

Thanks,

Marcelino
