Hah! This single LUN on the array is using 64 disks. The array in question (the smaller of the two) has 216 450Gb drives. The new one I just got a month ago has 216 600Gb drives. In a couple months there will be a 1Tb drive available in this form factor. I don't know what the "street price" on this h/w is (somewhere between "a lot" and "holy *****"), and I'm not at liberty to divulge what the "internal price" is.
