Expanded Hypermodel (HM) size options!
Standard WS will be from 1-130GB
Hyper Model (HM) WS will be 131GB-720GB (The 50GB increments is no longer required)
Until now, the available sizes have been 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500, 550, 600, 650,
700 and 720GB. Any increase or decrease to a HM WS had to result in one of these sizes.
The reason for the 50GB increments was packing efficiency and the presumed
maintenance effort and cost of varying WS sizes and regular changes to such WS. That
said, we know from a technical standpoint that a HM WS can be any size.
After review by the engineering team, it was determined that the factors driving the 50GB
sizes were no longer applicable. Further, the 200GB starting point for HM WS is also no
longer a factor and HM WS may start at 131GB (Standard WS top out at 130GB).
