ND enthusiast, arsenic digger and basically weird!

After a mammoth move in april 2009 and a donation in august I'm the proud caretaker of

  • Two Nord-10 in bad condition (1 2)
  • Twelve ND-110 satellites (1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12)
  • Two ND-100 satellite 9 systems (1 2)
  • A ND-100 compact
  • Four ND-110 compact (1 2 3 4)
  • A ND-100 in an orange half rack
  • Four loose ND-100 CPU crates (1 2 3 4)
  • A ND-500 and a filestore with SMB disks
  • One ND-5200 compact and one ND-5xxx compact (It depends on what I can put together)
  • One ND-5xxx compact card cage without cards.
  • A ND-5700
  • A ND-5700 without CPU
  • A ND filestore with SCSI discs
  • Two different tape drives
  • Two ND 511 HAWK disks (CDC 9427H-R HAWK CDD, SMB, 10 Mbyte, also marked ND 31-304) in cabinets. (1 2)
  • A ND 585 Phoenix disk (CDC 9448 CDD, SMB, 16+16 Mbyte) for rack mounting.
  • A number of different disks
    • ND 138-0633 Fujitsu b030-4740-T002A M2322K 8 inch disk drive (168 Mbyte with SMB interface)
  • A ND butterfly
  • A whole lot of various cards and other loose pieces
  • Close to a ton of documentation
  • A lot of different software.
  • And a large number of terminals
    • 36 NOTIS VDU terminals, made by Nokia
    • A TELERAY 10 terminal, came with the NORD-10/S from LUDD
    • A CAD terminal, CLOU III, ND 111055 with digitizer, pen and two LCD screens
    • A rebranded Texas Instruments printer terminal.
    • Several Tandberg terminals of various models

But a collector never gets enough so what I'm looking for right now is :

  • More information about the ND-5000 series of computers.
  • More CPU:s to upgrade my ND-5700 system.
  • A ND-5850 CPU or ND-5800 CPU.
  • Hardware information about OWS, also known as the butterfly
  • Microcode information for ND-110/ND-120 CPU:s
  • More ND-10 and ND-50 hardware
  • A 80 Mbyte CDC SMB cartridge disk to read the media I got

Some of my ND projects beside this wiki

I made a brief showing at a local lan, Frostbyte 2013, with some of my computers, among other a ND-110 with a notis terminal. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIMtinBfVOc

If you are interested in getting a ND system, want to get rid of a ND system or just chat about these computers, feel free to contact me.
