| This was one of the earliest microcomputers
I ever saw in action and one that was always high on my want list. Now
I need doc and I'm looking for a disk controller and drives.
The Helios II
Disk Memory System was a duel 8" diskette drive system for the Sol-20
which, according to the brochure I have, "Under optimum
conditions each diskette can store 384,000 bytes of information....Up to
four dual drives (8 diskettes) can be accessed by the system so that
over 3,000,000 bytes of data are on line." If you have one of
these in your closet you'd like to see go to a happy home or you just
want to pass on an interesting story about it, please
send me email. Here is an
old ad for the system but be warned it is
about 274k. |
