> In terms of performance, here are the key factors between
> Dedicated and Minidisks:
> 1. Dedicated DASD is not eligible for MDC, while minidisks
>   (full pack and partial pack) are eligible.
> 2. Some hardware Storage Servers do not handle the I/Os that
>   CP generates for partial, and in some cases, fullpack
>   minidisks as efficiently as they do the I/O from
>   Dedicated DASD.
> 3. There is a slight savings in pathlength for CCW translation
>   as CP does not have to check cylinder values.
