    MMU

  • 16 contexts, 1GB address space in each

    CACHE

  • cpu has 128KB write-through cache
  • the 370 does not have an i/o cache because
  • with SMD drives it achieves very high performance

  • 5.5GB (8 688's SMDs) can be put in two exp. pedestals
  • 1.3GB ( 2 669's internal to the main cabinet)

    SCSI

  • up to 4 internal scsi devices; CD-ROM and 1/4" tape
  • standard; can have up to 2 669MB scsi disks

    BUS

  • VME 12 slot, (2) 5 1/4"
  • devices 1/2" tape in a single CPU enclosure
