I have heard from a 3390-27 that has 3 times the capacity of a 3390-9. If your application is running under zLinux you can use an LVM like riserfs to create a logical volume that is spread over many real disks.

If only the data utilized the one huge volume, what would be the repercussions? Please advice. Cecelia Dusha
