I took a look at a few here and they are small than my CYL(5,1) and I
know we have at least Mod-27s. 

DR is a consideration about size. Does your DR service provider support
them??

Now there's a timely question!

We're going through a bid process for new DASD right now.  We'll be
moving 
from 3 Sun V2X's to a single box.  I have a boss who I've argued with, 
cajoled, and just generally lambasted for 5 years or so trying to wean
him 
away from mod-3's.  While I've gotten him to allow me mod-9's in limited

application, it's been a struggle.  But now with the new box coming in, 
something has happened and all of a sudden he's talking -27's and -54's 
with PAV's and such! 

So I'm also wondering what other's are using on the larger volumes and 
what kinds of gotcha's might be waiting for me.
