adding 3310 expansion unit with 146gb drives to 3310 disk array with 72gb

I have a 3310 disk array with 12 72gb drives , configured raid 5 , 1 hot spare...The host side scsi parms are max queded i/o 256, luns /host 32, max # concurent host lun 128, cyl/head/sector cyl-65536,head-64, sector-255......problems.

I have added a 3310 expansion unit to the original disk array. expansion unit also configured raid5 , one local spare. sd.conf also update. I am able to newfs, mount and use the disk. however it odd compared to othe disks when using the solaris format command. questions are the OK for 146gb drives. I noticed that one of the options for cyl/head/sector was variable. does anyone have experience using the option?
