HP DL 380 G5 biggest SAS 10K hard disk size

[alexey-ua]

Hi.

We have HP DL 380 G5 (hp smart array p400/512 bbwc) with 7x146 GB 10K SAS disks installed.

We want to upgrade our disks to biggest which is possible on he market.

This generic spare parts list   show me only 146 GB drives. But here in quick specs  i see 300 GB SAS disks.

i think it is 507127-B2. I`m right ?

Does this server support 450 GB or 600 GB 10K SAS disks ? any proof link will be appreciated.
