Free to good home

Gents

Been a while.... :-)

Having a massive clearout prior to moving, and throwing away a Compq server I forgot I had. Anyway, inside is 128MB of RAM, in 60ns 32MB SIMMS (possibly EDO) I seem to remember using similar in my old 4000's a few years back.

So, if any use to anyone, first to send me an SSAE gets them; PM me for details.

No one? Free, as in free free free, other than cost of postage. Heck, send me 2 1st class stamps and your address, I'll provide the jiffy bag and make up the postage if needed.

Hi Al,

I would like those SIMMs if you still have them, please.

I wouldn't wish to see you go empty-handed for them. Can you accept PayPal?

If so, I'll send you a PM.

Thanks.

I doubt it. That's as near as I've ever been to Chatham.

Thankyou very much for those SIMMs, Alan! I received them this morning.

And you've no idea how much I appreciate that 80-pin SCSI hard drive. I need just such a drive to dump an image of a Kyocera KC-30B hard disk.

It is an RLL hard drive, and the controllers need an ISA slot, so I have to use an old motherboard and I can't use an IDE hard drive to boot the machine because the RLL controller uses the primary hard drive port address and interrupt, so only a SCSI drive will work as a boot drive and destination for the hard disk image and none of my SCSI hard drives is presently available for this.

So thanks again!

No worries, glad it was of use.

RLL!!! Blimey, that dates me. I remember using a 40mb (yep, thats Megabytes, children), on an IBM PS/2 Model 30...

I still had a couple of ISA controller cards until I sold my A4000s, and an IDE RAID controller card or two. I wont ask why anyone would want to keep a Kyocera.. XT or AT? (I still have the Aug 1985 PCW which reviewed the A1000, and a iirc a Kyocera PC)
