Plenty of room. I have a disk no larger than 300M with VMS 7.2
for VAX, DECWindows, DECNet, UCX (by any other name), etc, and

problems with
simply pulling the CD drive out of my 3000/400, sticking it into the
3000/300L, and booting VMS from the CD?
Are they both single-ended SCSI? My guess is no problems at all.
