Hard disks in solaris
I need to insert a new hard disk into a Sun Fire v210 machine. The (only) internal disk which is already in the machine is part number XRA-SC1CB-73G10K (DISK DRIVE ASSY. 73GB, 10K RPM, with SPUD BRACKET).
I also have nearly endless access to IBM hard disks at extremely low prices and would there fore preferably use an IBM disk. Has anyone here done anything like this? Would you assume that there would be anticipate any problems concerning this?
