You can definitely change your sources.list to woody it would be the same as if you were doing a dist upgrade with debian potato. I have spoken with there tech support and they said the only real difference between storm and debian is the install and their
storm administration tool. They are also an official debian mirror and maintainer for debian.
As far as the difference between unstable and testing...........
I have no idea :)
