I would not go above Mavericks with only 4GB of RAM. Apple Discussions are full of posts from people with minimal RAM (4 GB) who found their systems unacceptably slow after installing post-Mavericks OS versions.

You can get Sierra here, and it might be better, if the partition was changed to APFS, you may need to reformat.

Put Sierra in for the partition that is meant for Disk Warrior only and all went well the first time around. The system booted in 60 seconds, unlike High Sierra, which was a major boondoggle.
Thanks for the help, guys!

Should be perfectly fine if you are just running DW from it.
I took a smallish (500GB) drive a while back, put it in our host's transparent enclosure, and partitioned it for half a dozen OS versions, each with a few key utilities. Figure it could come in handy, if I ever need to clone back a system and be up and running quickly.
