Installing bigger HDs in Storage works 4214R
Hey guys,
I have an old Storageworks U3 Drive Enclosure 4214R and this is my current configuration: 1 RAID 5 Array with 8 x 36 GB SCSI (15K RPM) I wonder if I can use bigger disks of 72 , 144 GB or even bigger on that unit? I have not found any manual, thanks, Gaston. |

The 4214R is scsi2 not 3, unless the controller module (module where the cables plug in) has been upgraded. Phil |

Thanks Phil, your help is very appreciated. I will quote some new hard
drives for the unit. Have you (or anyone else) upgraded the controller module? do you know the part number? Thanks Gaston. "Phil" wrote in message ... "Gaston Perez" wrote in message ...
