That's fine then. I'm not really expecting to have much, if any, of my own
data :-)
I wouldn't except the Alpha version is much
larger. Just be careful
not to overload it with stuff you won't use.
I'll try not to. :-)
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.
Probably. If I remember by hardware reference correctly, they've both got
identical SCSI controllers - the 400 has two of them, the 300 only one.
