A. best answer! The problem is that the disk drive vendors use the Bill Clinton standard for honesty ... what they call an 18 GB drive is really an 18 billion byte drive, which, if you do the math, works out to ~16.86 GB. HTH... -----Original Message-----OS=solaris 2.6 hardware=E450-->multipacks problem: 18gb disks inserted in multipacks clearly have 7506 cylinders labeled on them, in format, they show 7506 cyl as well. however, the backup slice (2) only shows the disk to have 16.85gb of storage available??? what gives. thanks again for your time. rf _______________________________________________ sunmanagers mailing list sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org http://www.sunmanagers.org/mailman/listinfo/sunmanagersReceived on Thu Nov 1 22:03:14 2001
