I have been on the lookout for software for an emulator of MU5 that I am building. Manchester University has found a disk pack that is promisingly labelled. The disk pack has been provisionally identified as an ICL EDS8, apparently compatible with an IBM 2311 and with the mechanical assembly based on a CDC 9450.
The University has asked The National Museum of Computing (TNMOC) is they have a drive that could read this disk pack, but it seems that although they have such a drive, they have no plans to restore it. Does anyone know of a working drive that might be able to read this pack? Regards Rob
