ND-500 Serial number 062 was delivered to Studsvik Energiteknik in Nyköping, Sweden, in April 1982. It consisted of a ND-520 cabinet with 1/4 MByte local ND-100 memory and 1/2 MByte multiport memory. It also had a 75 MByte disk and four terminal interfaces.
Either this system was upgraded extensively or the documentation is for another system, the machine I got is a ND-530/CX and the serial number for the system seems to be "5171.17768". I have to check the serial numbers of the power supplies, floppys and the disks in the filestore rack. If it turns out to be a different system then I will split this page in two separate pages.
The system was given to me in August 2009.

Current status
The system resides in the ND-Collection in Umeå. Its operational status isn't known and it is standing in a corner. With the system came a lot of binders with the original documentation and software.
Plans
The system will be put in working order some time in the future. First it will be documented.
