So what have I got?

Machines

I have the following machines

900.135 ND-Satellite/9
3392-1669 ND-100/CX Compact model 12
9883.21005 ND-110 Satellite model T9

Other hardware

1 x Facit 4012 paper tape winding machine (got it 2017-07-14)
1 x ND13-310 Facit 4070 paper tape punch (got it 2017-07-14). Lots of documentation in the facit directory on Bitsavers^[1]
1 x ND11-671 Digitronics 2540 paper tape reader (got it 2017-07-14). Operation and maintenance manual on Bitsavers^[2].

Software

disks

2016-05-28: I got some removable disks (cartridge disks? disk packs?)

1 x type CDC Model 9848-24
1 x type Control Data Model 9848-24
3 x type Control Data Model 848-24

Perhaps all are the same model?

floppies

5.25 inch

The 5.25 inch floppies I have.

2016-07-21: I visited Burbas in Sweden, and got all the 5.25 inch floppies with ND software he had. This includes three large binders (blue, ND logo) with the software from Bert Thomas' announcement on cc-talk back in 2008. An index sheet in one of the binder says that this software was running on system 3081.20557. Most of the software comes with documentation (PD, PI sheets) on paper. Numbers in parenthesis is where I have substituted the new numbering scheme from ND (add "2" to the front of any five-digit number).

2013-10-27: a 5.25 inch floppy image (uncompressed, I simply used dd). Although it was labeled "URD" something on the (paper) label, it turns out it had something else on it. Looks like it has PERFORM, FILE-MAN and some U-E files on it. Unfortunately, I have not recorded from where I got this floppy.

8 inch

The 8-inch floppies I have.

2016-06-30: from a colleague at work I got a 8 inch floppy.

210518C01-NO-01S USER-ENVIRONMENT. User name: FLOPPY-USER, Prod. release date: 861124 861021. No idea if it still works or not. 2018-07-25: The 8-inch floppy is still readable, check out the ND-210518C page.

tape

2016-05-28: in today's haul I got 9 (magnetic) tapes, the spools are about 7 inches in diameter (add about one centimeter for the protective case), the tape itself is about 0.5 inch wide. some tapes are unlabeled, most carry a "Racal-Zonal" label, one has "Fully Tested to 3200 F C I", "Racal-Zonal", "CALCULUS COMPUTER TAPE" on the same label. (Note to self: more tapes are available, if I can figure out a way to read them)

9 x 0.5 inch wide tapes, perhaps this is 9-track tape? Is this what is called CCT (computer compatible tape)?

Luckily, the tapes have an index / contents written down on paper stored inside the tape box.

paper tape

2016-07-28: Another haul, and I got two trays of paper tapes, see picture

2016-05-28: in this haul I got a paper tape, see below. (Note to self: more paper tapes are available, if interested.)

1 x 8-hole paper tape containing RUNOFF:SYMB (text both punched and written with pencil on tape)
