Depends on the m64 revision/amount of memory on the board. I don't
remember the details, other than running at least 1152x900 in 24bit on
the U5 I had on my desk at one point.
As for the difference between a U5, and a U10. Its the case, that's
all. U10 is the 'expandable' version of a U5.
If SCSI is important, then consider the U30/U60's recommended by others.
If large storage is important IDE drives are very cheap, albeit w/ some
performance trace off. (Yes, I think sometimes size does matter. <duck>)
