Using a Wren with A/UX

Hello people. I'm looking for a 300Mb Wren drive to use for both MacOS and
A/UX. I've seen them advertised in various incarnations for about $1900.
However, none of the firms advertising them includes partitioning software
that can split it for both A/UX and MacOS.
Now I've been told that it's cake to modify the names of the supported drives
for HD SC Setup with a sector editor and get it to support a drive. But I'm
still a little dubious to spend $1800 on a drive without knowing that it's
definitely partitionable.
I could buy a MiniScribe with a 30 day money-back return, but I'd much rather
buy a Wren...I've heard they're better drives. Can anyone offer any advice?
Thanks
