If anyone is interested.....I installed and ran a demonstrator Seagate Wren8
as a single, large partition of 1.415 gigabytes in size. All is found by:
disk -i -l Wren8 /dev/rsd2c

the label    Wren8     was never seen again. Instead   'Seagate ST41650'

I then mounted the disk to my NeXTslab-2.0 with:
mount /dev/sd2a /opt

The adaptive performance is very good for 3600 rpm, but the Elite was 1.5
times better at 5400 rpm.

I have to take the disk back to Rorke Data tomorrow......sob.......
