Hi all
I was told that VAX-11/750 memory could also be used in an PDP-11/70 (or
maybe some other model). Is this true?
Yes. :-)
I have also read that there are three kinds of
memory boards for the
11/750:
M8728: 256k byte memory array;
M8750: 1M byte memory array;
M7199: 4M byte memory array.
(As well as some third party boards.
Which one of these, if any, could be used in an 11/70?
Only the 256K ones.
By the way, while I'm at it.
The 4M ones can only be used if you have the right memory controller in
a 11/750 as well, and then only two of them, in the first two slots. The
rest are at most 1M cards, if I remember right.
And if you absolutely want to use 1M cards in an 11/70, ping me, and
I'll walk you through the howto. (Update have done this in the past. It
is not trivial, but it is possible.)
