 I do know about the VAXstation boot drive limitations
of 1Gig... For the
price, I like the 1Giggers better, but they won't do me crap if the VAX
won't recognize 'em... ;-) 

First research that as it only affects certain boxen and only for VMS
crash dumps.

 (I've got a few DEC drives laying around, so
I've not tried any non-DEC
drives in my VAXen yet...) 

Try them anyway.  They will work most likely.

Besides a 1gb drive is lots of space as VMS isn't a pig like NT or Win2k.
