I'd run some network server software on the VAX. You can still do quite 
a few nifty things with it. I keep a VS4000 just for fun (i.e. Web 
serving, network/background tasks etc.)
Otherwise, 4 GB run at maybe $1000 these days. How much do you want to 
spend on the SDI adapter (e.g. an HSC with SCSI front end)?

Give the drives to a museum.

Just my $0.02,
