I'm thinking now I just may keep my Nf7-s setup as it has been good to me and all. May set it up for the kiddos to play on.

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.

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 ![]() edit: edited the IMG tags to URL cause the forum doesn't seem to auto-resize them (probably because the pics are in portrait, not landscape) Last edited by Bambooz; Mar 11, 2012 at 03:27 AM. |

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. |

Well with this recent awesome purchase I just figured I would have to share a couple of photos with everyone.
Okay not really what one would really consider "nostalgic" but more like "epic" So I figured I would include it for your enjoyment. 4870x2
4870x2 back
