sort of near OT - FastT drive usage

Its only sort of off topic, since we only use this with AIX, and I don't
know the hardware very well:

The FastT700. We're configuring one for use with 36 Gb drives (we need lots
of spindles, not lots of space). If we go this way and 36Gb drives become
hard to find in the future lifetime of this thing, can you plug in larger
drives that would be used as 36Gb drives like the RAIDiant arrays do? We
don't want to be trapped into putting down tons of bucks for what should
have been a single drive.

Many thanks for tolerating the veering away and sorry for the long
disclaimer.
