I feel the same way about my Kt7a board. I won't sell that thing for nothing. I've had that board up and running for over 10 yrs. It's like the Energizer Bunny, keeps going and going.

Huge welcome to the forums as well man. Glad you joined due to this thread!!!

Um, no, I am definitely not younger than the 8" floppy disks. Hell, I can even remember them to be honest. Pretty much a rarity these days though.

Adding you to the original post bro!

I've got waaaaay too much stuff that's much older than most of the items already posted here (and probably older than a lot of members), but it's 4:15 AM here right now so I don't really feel like digging everything out atm :P

You'll have to make due with few HDDs for now..

Seagate ST351A/X (40MB singleplatter. one of the last stepper drives)
http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/at...1&d=1331434794
http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/at...1&d=1331434813

Seagate Marathon 260SL (2.5" 10mm, 262MB, 4000rpm, 120KB Cache, from 1994)
http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/at...1&d=1331434829

Toshiba MK2124FC (2.5" full height (20mm), 130MB, 2 platters, 3200rpm, 32KB Cache, from 1991)
pretty bad pic but anyways
http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/at...1&d=1331434838


I also have one Quantum Bigfoot of each series (CY, TX, TS), a Seagate Barracuda 4GB 3.5" full height SCSI drive from ~1996 (?) and a HP SureStore Disk 2000LP 2GB SCSI HDD from January 1996 somewhere.
And a 40MB NEC MFM HDD and a WD/Tandon 20MB MFM HDD plus the accompanying Amstrad PC1640 (8086 8MHz, 640KB RAM) they came out of / are in atm.

Oh and yeah.. all of this is still fully functional

Sorry for the bad pics, I swear I took a lot more! They just disappeared on me :c

I had a PII server pc, but I can't find it anymore. I may have trashed it a while ago...

One of the drives has a sticker that says "do not low level format." Why would that be?

Uneducated guess: A real low-level format wouldn't only get rid of the data, but also the tracking information, basically bricking the drive cause the heads don't know where they're at / where they're supposed to go (?)

Those old stepper HDDs worked more like an oversized floppy drive than a HDD of today. Sort of a hybrid between the two, with more "floppy-tech".
It even mattered how you mounted them. A stepper HDD formatted horizontally wouldn't work properly if you mounted it vertically, cause gravity would pull the (compared to todays drives very simple) mechanics slightly out of alignment.
