EVA 3000 and 300GB drives

[Pete Hakesley]

Hi,

We have an old EVA 3000 with 56 - 146GB drives across 4 shelves. I am trying to find if the EVA3000 will support the 300GB FC drives. HPs website has no information I can find - does anyone know the answer!

Regards,

Pete

If you mix 146 Gb and 300 GB disks on the same disk group, the total capacity available will not be directly the sum of all capacities, it's more complex.
