MVII GPX in BA123

 
 Posted by at 18:47

Since a long time I would like to have a BA123 Case as the space in a BA23 is limited and it’s each time a bit tricky to thread in/out the cards and cables.

In my last Haul I have got these nice equipped MicroVAXII in BA123.

Unfortunately the system was damaged by water, ontop to the usual NiCd damage, which has done great work.

I have spend many hours to clean the system, to repair the fans, and to neutralize the acid.

 

System says hello and lives again. It’s not a beauty as the damage was too much, but it’s running and passing the MDM diagnostics.
