That's what I think too. Mod 27 and Mod 54 don't exist. I just read the ds8000 doc, you can choose 3390 Standard Mod 3, 3390 Standard Mod 9, or 3390 Custom Volume.
Velocity, if you are listening, question, any way of seeing the cyl counts in any of the screens for "custom" volumes?

After RAID came along everyone stopped making real devices. Model 27 and 54 never existed. They were emulated model 9's with more cylinders.
