IBM is has once again had a good idea (to me anyway). Storage bricks that are stackable will give admins an easy way to maintain their storage farm.

A three-by-three-by-three stack has 27 bricks, but a six-by-six-by-six collection would have 216. With a collection of eight bricks on a side, there would be 512 bricks--6,144 hard drives--in a system a little wider than an adult's arm span.
