  • Model 514 takes up TWO of your FOUR SBus slots

    MMU

  • supports 64,000 contexts
  • the SS10 board supports V8 of the SPARC
  • Reference MMU spec
  • This allows for QUAD Precision 128 bits also

    CACHE

    PERIPHERALS

  • floppy, 1/4" tape, 1/2" tape, SCSI disks, CD-ROM,
  • microphone, speaker box

    PORTS

  • 2 RS232/423 ports on cpu board - jumper to change
  • 1 10MB SCSI-2, 2 ISDN ports, 1 parallel port
  • 1 RS423/232 port that has a Y cable for two ports
  • A is async or sync and B is ansync only
  • Twisted Pair Ethernet port (RJ-45 TPE)
  • 16 bit audio and AUI port (for external transceiver)

    TAPE

  • tape is 150MB SCSI 1/4" tape
  • Front Load 6250/1600/800 HP tape drive
  • also can accommodate 5.0 GB 8mm

    ISDN

  • There are 2 ISDN ports on the SS10
  • we support the Basic Rate Interchange
  • which is know as 2B+D ( 2 Base channels and a D channel)

    DISK

  • Below are the initial max numbers
  • 26 GB of SCSI Disk capacity using 1.3 GB SCSI
  • up to 848MB or 2GB (announced future) of SCSI in the pizza box
  • the expansion rack can have up to 10.4GB of 1.3's
  • there is max of two expansion racks
  • the previous absolute max is 20 SCSI drives on the SS10
  • up to 4 SBus SCSI host adapter with 4 drives
  • on each and 4 on the motherboard SCSI host adapter
  • the 1.3's have a seek time of 11.5ms and transfer
  • at 3 to 4.5MB per second using ZBR (zone bit recording)
  • 41GB MAX disk is calculated:
  • (2) DSCSI Expansion pedestals 16.8GB each (33.6GB Total)
  • using (8) 2.1GB DSCSI's per pedestal
  • all 4 SBus slots are used with (2) DSCSI Expansion pedestals
  • this is because you can not go from one tray to the bottom
  • there is a limit of 4 DSCSI's to the DSBE in this scenario
  • (2) 424MB Drives internal ( .8GB Total )
  • (5) 1.3GB drives external ( 6.5GB Total )
  • This gives you 40.9GB using Solaris 2.1 or higher
  • 1.05GB are the new standard drives

    BUS

  • 2 MBus slots and 4 SBus slots, 8 memory slots

    OPERATING SYSTEM

  • 4.1.3
  • SOLARIS 2.0 will be available in Fall 92
  • at this point you will be able to add a second
  • processor module ie a Model 52

    UPGRADES

  • no penalty upgrades from IPX and SS2
  • is a box swap upgrade
  • customers retain current monitor, internal disks
  • SBus cards, keyboard and mouse.
  • There are gotchas here so carefully checkout
  • the upgrade guide

    PACKAGE

  • pizza box, 3" x 16.4" x 16.1" - 20 pounds

    DATABASE

  • Model 30 TPS is 100 estimated
  • Model 41 TPS is 120 estimated
  • Model 54 NEVER SHIPPED TPS is 220 estimated

    NFS

  • 741 NFSops @ 49.2ms
  • This was done with a SS10-512, 128MB, 4 Ethernets
  • 16 1.05MB drives + 1 424 running 2.3 Pre-FCS
