I agree with Denys, though given Tracy has a 9x7 and HP in its infinite
silliness will not allow 7.x to boot on a 9x7, he will only be able to use
4GB of any drive on LDEV 1.

That said, the 4GB drives were notoriously flaky so it would still be better
to get the new 18GB drive even though he can only use 4GB.
