I don't think anyone is asking Sun to service disks that aren't theirs, but
to claim that's a reason for not selling drive trays is crap.  You already
claimed in the other thread that Sun has contracts for custom disks so they
don't have to worry about short stroking/right-sizing so it should be pretty
frigging obvious to support if the disks in the JBOD are Sun or "some random
crap purchased from fry's".
