Thanks very much for the info. You can probably
answer one more related question for me. We will be
replacing our J40 with a p630. We want to continue
using an existing 7133-600 array filled with 9.1G
drives for another year, when they'll be replaced. Do
the current SSA adapters support the model 600 array?
Thanks,
