[comp.sys.hp] Wanted: Cooling requirements for 7933/35

jamesc@pcsceln.uucp (James Clough (Senior-SA)(m)) (04/19/91)

Does anyone have a heat dissipation figure for the hp7933/35 drives?  Our
sister school is building a system room and we need to know how much A/C
to buy.

Thanks.

They use enough that in a recent departmental move, one of our site groups
found it was cheaper to BUY new SCSI disks rather than build the necessary
space and cooling for the 7935s.  You might explore this.

Such is progress.
