Its interesting that this is the third hard drive type that has been
fitted to the RE-5.0, and that the first type was also a Fujitsu, from
an old RE-5.0:

Routing Engine 0 REV 09   740-009459   x        RE-5.0
  ad1   19077 MB  FUJITSU MHS2020AT    y      Hard Disk

Seems that Juniper tried to move to the Hitachi drive, had lots of
issues
and have now switched back to Fujitsu. Presumably the 2030 rather than
2020
is because the new drive is a 30GB drive rather than a 20GB one. I'm not
sure what differences will be between the 'MHSxxxxAT' and 'MHTxxxxAR'
ranges.
