I'm seriously looking at adding some nice (newer) Seagate Cheetah W drives to this machine, but the question is, how many can I actually do? We used to have a limit of 32 drives, and as you can see, I'm pushing to near that limit with 28. The code in MAKEDEV looks to me like we might still have that limit. I'd like to know for sure before I commit to a pointless expense. ...
