I was advised by my reseller not to go with Sun hard drives larger
than 36GB because that was the highest qualified "NEBS-Compliant"
drive available for that model.

Something like a X5263A fitting inside that system would be great....?



Concerns are overheating and taxing the power supply?

Help, help! My servers are starting to get chock full of crap and I
need more space in the internal bays!

The Netra T1 is NEBS qualified, which means that it is certified
for use in USA telephone exchanges. If you are no using the machine
in a telephone exchange you can safely ignore the NEBS stuff.
72GB drives work OK but the 15Krpm ones run too hot for the small case.
