A Collector's Item and Conversation Starter. I acquired this hard drive before I retired and have enjoyed bringing it out to "blow the minds" of our youngest family members and friends. However, it's time to down-size in preparation for our next residence relocation, so I wonder if there are any local "nerds" or "geeks" around here with an interest in old technology. From my research this drive was used in the IBM System/32 (IBM 5320) introduced in January 1975. It was a low-end business computer with built-in display screen, disk drives, printer, and database report software. It was used primarily by small to midsize businesses for accounting applications. [Source: Wikipedia] For more detailed info and pictures visit https://www.glennsmuseum.com/s32/s32.html. The website is run by a software manager/programmer that worked on parts of the original System/32. The unit is not in 100% original condition. The drive was last used as a teaching aid at S.I.A.S.T. and was modified by adding a small motor to the underside to simply spin the platter. The original motor was quite large and I believe mounted separate from the drive itself. I assume there are other bits & pieces missing. I'll consider all offers!
