Afternoon all,
What started that myth?   I've managed to get a 146G drive working in a 
VAXstation 4000/60 (10,000 RPM, too!).   Unless I did my maths wrong, it's 
showing up as 136G as a FILES-11 volume(~700M in SHOW DEVICES at the 
tripel chevron prompt)
There also seems to be no 1G boot drive limit on this as my boot drive is 
about 4G.
Was this a limit that existed in earlier VAXstations?
VMS, generally, doesn't have any issues unless you're booting the system
with older built-in controllers.   Even then, if you can organize the VMS
files needed for bootstrap, you can probably boot from a larger system
drive too.
