So what's
the QED993 good for? RSX-11 or a really fast RT-11 box? TSX-11?
Who were they aiming at?
The information I got from the seller here is that these were pulled
from from something like a stock trader firm where speed was
everything. These RAM drive cards were probably part of the same
system setup:

Those look like 128MB cards in a 39x8 array of MB814100 4Mbit DRAMs, I
assume in an ECC configuration.
Huh... If that's an MSCP drive, it's kinda handy. It might take a few
minutes to populate via serial at power-on, but pretty nice once it's
loaded.
