We just did this on a 5000/200. The drive mas "manually" formatted and
partitioned based on the vendor supplied characteristic data. It was
painful enough. I don't have the data at hand right know, but can post
them to the net tomorrow or directly to you if you are interested.

You also have to configure- and build a kernel which is able to recognize
the drive, which you you probably know how to do?

Our disk excerciser was able to get 2.1Mb/sec out of the drive when doing
raw reads with big block sizes. Seems to be a good alternative to the RZxx
series of drives.

The above mentioned test has also been run on many other 3d party SCSI disk
connected to the PMAX. Drop me a note if anyone should be interested.
