[[ND-5830]] Serial number 129 was given to me by [http://datamuseum.dk/ Dansk Datahistorisk Forening] in 2020. I believe it was previous in the possession of the Danish Telephone Company. The computer was built in 1987-11-19.

This machine has been upgraded to the more modern CPU Rallar that were introduced in 1990 and has two CPU:s. It has three SCSI controllers on the 5000 side as well as dual Ethernet III cards. At the top shelf there is two tape streamer, the boot disk, a 5.25" floppy drive and the front panel.

==Missing parts and damages==

Only thing missing is a few screws and the two bars holding in the power supplies.

==Current status==
The system resides in my main collection outside of Umeå. It's operational status is unknown.
* 2020-11-05 Arrived at my main collection, the move from Denmark went just fine without major problems. To move it the last leg of the journey all side panels, the top shelf and power supplies have been removed and is sitting at it's side.
[[Image:ND-5830 snr-129 Front view open.jpg |300px | thumb | Stripped, ready for transport as soon the crate covers are put back again.]]

==Plans==
The system will be put together and tested. The disk will be imaged separately first.
