Supported disks, disk licensing, and cold spares for Dell PowerVault MD3600f?
Hey all -
Title pretty much says it all. I'm curious about a few things:
- What size of disks are supported by this model? Do the disks have to have Dell firmware on them? Is there a list of supported part numbers?
- Is disk capacity licensed by slot, or do we have all of the hardware disk slots available to us?
- Would we be able to have an equivalent piece of hardware with an identical configuration, and in the event of an outage with our live hardware, we could simply flip the disks to the cold spare, boot it, and be back in business? Or is there licensing funny business that would prevent this?
