No, Google seems pretty vague, especially about the 6520.
There was a time when Unisys and NCR produced the same servers, only
with different badging and model numbers (I'm not sure how identical the
OS was)
Actually I believe Unisys rebadged NCR's hardware rather than it being a
joint venture.
One or both of the models you have may just be rebadged NCR hardware,
which may give you a few ideas for doing more digging.
(I have an NCR Tower 700/32; it's a pretty slick server for the day)

NCR? I thought they were sourcing hardware through ACER? Actually, the
hardware John found may have some actual Unisys content in it. I had a
PC based server that seemed identical to one of the UN6xxx boxes. It
was a 486 with an EISA buss and the label claimed something abuot being
made in a California city. I don't recall which one. I think the
sticker used the term "manufactured".

I checked this morning and on the label it states "Built with PRIDE 06/09/93
San Jose, CA"

comp.sys.unisys was a real champ in my hour of need,
when I found a micro A system many moons ago.
It took a week to get a reply, but it was a goodun.
