Very Computer

Hello,

We've been trying to get a 47 GB (it's 60 unformated/47 formated)
disk to format on some Ultra 5's for about a week now, and
not getting anywhere.  All we get is "format failed".
Another odd thing is that the disk specs say it has
328 Sectors per track, and the maximum that the format allows
us to enter is 256.

So the question came up, maybe the OS doesn't support
a single 47 GB disk.  The only documentation we've seen is
that it supports aruond 18GB.
Does anyone know if Solaris 2.7 supports a 47 GB Seagate disk?
Has anyone succeeded in getting a single 47GB (formated) disk
to work?
What is the maximum supported disk size?

Thanks,
John
