ND-100 Satellite 9, serial 900.315 is a machine from the first model of the Satellite series.
Configuration
There is a high probability that the cards installed is not what was in it from the beginning or even in the right position.
- Hard disk : CDC 9410 Finch 24 MB winchester disk S/N 3281
- Floppy : 8" floppy missing
- Slot 1 : 3033 NO100 CPU
- Slot 2 : 3104 NO100 MEM.MAN. II
- Slot 3 : Empty
- Slot 4 : 3042 NO100 2MBY RAM
- Slot 5 : 3038 NO100 DISC CONT 8"
- Slot 6 : 3027 NO100 FL.DISC CTR.
- Slot 7 : 3013 9 TERM IF.
- Slot 8 : 3034 NO100 512K RAM
Operating system
Probably SINTRAN III VS
History
- Donated to FUN, Umeå.
- Sitting in a basement storage until may 2009.
- Donated to me in 2009
Location
The system belongs to Göran Axelsson and is located in storage outside of Umeå, Sweden.
Future plans
- Make an in depth analyze of the system, check which cards are installed, check the cabling to find out which cards once were installed and if I got spare, add the missing cards to it.
- The hard disk is in locked position, adding a note here to not forget unlocking it.
- Test the hardware, especially the hard disk.
- See if I can use any of my spare 8" floppy drives and install it.
- If the disk is working, make an image of it and extract the system password.
I will try to put this system and it's twin into working order some time in the future. There will be metal parts missing so I need to do some fabrication to get it perfect.
