Hi, We have an SAN FAS-2240 currently working with disks X422 FW NA01. We would add a disk but the FW is NA03. The disk is recognized when you add it but we didn't affect it yet. Is there any potentiel problem?

I am having trouble with a replacement disk on a FAS3240 (NetApp Release 8.2.3P4 7-Mode). I have replaced the bad disk but it appears that the replacement disk has been formatted at 512B instead of 520B. The replacement disk is a certified NetApp drive so I know it is originally from NetApp and has NetApp firmware. We did get this one from a third-party vendor because we are not currently under NetApp support. We have had the disk on the shelf too long to return it now so we are stuck with it. I uploaded the latest qual_devices files to both controllers just in case those are needed. I know the code version is old but it is what we are stuck with now. Is there a way to change the replacement disk to 520B?

Hi! We have a FAS2750 with 12x 960Gb SAS Disks and one aggregation shared between both controller nodes (half of the disks in one controller, other half in second controller, buth only 1 total aggregation). We just brought 6x new 1.6Tb SSD's and I'm trying to create a new aggregation, but without success. Actually, almost. I'm using ONTAP GUI interface to create this new aggregation. Durin wizard, it say that is not possible to automatically determine the correct aggregation because we have less disks than what is needed. Ok. Them, I switch to manually create and proced on wizard. After all, I have onde aggregation with 5x disks + 1x spare. The problem is that all these disks are owned by only one controller node, not 'shared' like the other aggregation. So my question is: is possible to create a new aggregation type 'shared' with only 6x disks? (We don't want to mix SSD's and non-SSD's since we already have non-SSD's in production). You can see the difference here in this screenshot:
