I was wondering if athena was getting rid of some old equipment and
would like to sell it to a research group here at MIT.
In particular, we have a DEC 5000/240 with a broken 5-1/4 inch
internal hard disk drive (model# RZ58). Unfortunately, DEC does not
make 5-1/4 inch hard disk drives anymore. I was told that athena has
been getting rid of some old equipment and would like to know if you
have a drive you can sell us.
Or an alternative would be a 3-1/2 inch hard disk drive with an expansion
box and power supply. Even if you just have an expansion box with the
power supply for 3-1/2 inch disk drive that you are getting rid of
that would be great.
In short, any hard disk drive for a DEC 5000 would be great.
Please let me know what you can do or who I should direct my request
to.
Thanks,
Ray Hinds
