Mike,
How about when you expand your disc farm, go to DDS-2, drive a
couple of them in paralell and start coming down with a variety
of VSTORE errors,  RESTORE with LISTDIR errors, and one
of 'em croaks 4 months later?  My suggestion, learned in a
hard fashion, is listen to Joe.

Mike,

How about updates when you go and upgrade the OS to 5.5 or 6.0 (when it
ships)?  Without support, you don't get the updates.
