You needn't have bothered: I have run DRBD and heartbeat, quite
successfully, on radically different hardware.
As long as the underlying devices are approximately the same size
everything will "just work." DRBD doesn't really care, and heartbeat
certainly doesn't.
A performance difference on the local disks, though, will result in
performance equal to the slower of the two disks.
