Wow, more than hundred of these CDC drives??? This
must have been a massive
installation! I didn't know so many disk drives could be combined with
Cyber systems. Thanks for the insights!
Pretty much any of the big mainframes of the day - IBM, Univac, CDC,
Burroughs, and so forth - could deal with huge disk farms with
hundreds of disks. Often these farms were the largest expense of an
installation.
