David..
i think the 380 series will take a 17mm drive..
have nothing beyond 6.4gigs yet.. besides 6.4is 12mm and so is the new
8.1gig, 12.5mm drive.. the only caveat being bios support..

the 10gig and 14gig are not shipping to dealers quite yet, and you can BET
i'll publish the availability of huge capacity drives once they ARE
available..
