In case any of you guys need a lot of space to do some VAX related stuff, I've got a 12 member, 2926056 block bound volume on KUHAVX/SIIRI.

Let me know if anyone wants an account.

Can't you do any better? ;-)

All units in blocks   

Excuse my ignorance, but what's the size of a block? ;)

512 bytes. So 16777216. blocks equals about 8 Gig. Which is the maximum size of a file system in RSX (well, support for 32-bit block numbers do exist, but is not enabled normally, so 24 bit block numbers is the normal limit).

Don't make me whip out my ePeen!

DRAKE (the 4000/90) has a pair of 146GB disks hanging off of it.

I've also got 4x300G disks I'm thinking about putting on it as well. :)

I should really see if that thing still boots. I should also replace the battery and find a proper disk enclosure for the disks in it (the SCA-50 adapters make them not fit right)
