DS10L and generic IDE disks

Does anyone know if DS10L requires the specific HP "3X-RE58A-BA" 40GB
drive for IDE, or if a generic drive will work?

The HP part is an OEM Maxtor Viper 40GB ATA.

If I use a generic Maxtor 40GB drive, is it likely to work, or do HP
have customisations in the firmware for SRM/Tru64 to use the disk?

HP prices are $300+ and generic parts are $90 !
