I'm looking for a good choice for a third-party disk to use as the boot device
for a DECstation 5000.  I have an opportunity to get a reasonably good deal on
a Wren V, but I don't recall reading anything on the net about the usability of
these disks on a DECstation.

Does anyone know if the Wren V works ok as the system disk on a DECstation
under Ultrix 4.0 or 4.1?

Does anyone know if there are any changes in 4.1 that make it easier/harder to
use a third-party disk as the boot device?

Generic advice on good choices for disks are also welcome, as is instructions
on how to make this all work as the boot device.

Thanks in advance for any advice.
