AERA is in the process of getting together a new mini computer system.  We
would like to use our current software which can be transfered from our
current RSTS/E PDP11/73 to VMS.  We have talked to several DEC OEMs on
possible configurations for our new systems and have received different
answers to the same questions!!  

We would like to use the following configuration

MicroVax II BA-123
	16 MB of RAM
	4 RD-54 fixed disk drives
	4 DHV-11M communications boards
	TK-50 tape drive

Some OEMs say it is ok to put all these drives into the machine, others say
it will not work internally, some would have to go into external cabinets.
Now, which version is correct?  Please include any other hints and tips you
might have on our desired configuration.
