Heee. Many many years ago, I worked for a VAR, and management noticed that disk storage was climbing fast, so they pitched contracts in terms of storage, not spindles.

After all, we could deliver the same storage on the mainframe with half the drives, that's just found money!

Except of course that the same storage on half the spindles has a serious performance and load balance hit...
