Takes two to get 256

Takes slots 5 & 6, making your 6509 a 6507 ;->

Idle curiosity - why do you need a 256 gig back plane? Assuming all seven of
the other slots each contain the 16 port Gig E blades, and each port was
going full duplex, that comes out to 224 gigs, according to my fingers. Oh
yeah, through in the two Gig E ports on the sup module, and that gets to
226.

I am still trying to figure how you can move that much data, given the way
networks normally work. ;->
