	I heard that A/UX was "designed" to be used on a Apple HD or
whatever drive is in there (it's a Quantum, isn't it?).  By "designed"
I mean that disk responce time on other drives will be less than optimal and 
also that there could be other problems.  Could anyone shed some light on 
this and hopefully say that it is all nonsence?  I would like to
get a 300+ Meg drive for A/UX instead of a combination of 4 HD80's from
Apple.  (Sorry Apple.)  The drive I'm interested in is a Micah 310.  
If there is a problem using other drives, does version 1.1 fix it?
