Thank You everyone for all the Information on my PC Server 500 find.
I found the manual on the IBM site as suggested by a kind soul here.
I may just go ahead and see if I can repair the PS, as it did not smoke when
it went out, it just popped, so it may be possible as someone suggested that
it's just a fuse inside the PS. I now have to locate a special hex screw
driver, as the screws are hex with a tiny post in the middle of the screw.
Safety Torx is what I think they are called. They aren't really hex are
they? Usually IBM uses Torx. I've heard of people using something very
hard, like a punch, to break the small stud off. They then use a
regular torx bit to unscrew it. I don't worry about it, since I have
the proper bits. I got them at a flee market type thing, However.
However is it anything more than just a Intel Pentium 90 that has 6 SCSI
2.25 Gig hard drives on it ? Can it do anything special other than run RAID
?
Well, it is an all Microchannel machine, it's the "biggest" "best"
