Re: Wilson Laboratories SX-530 disk exerciser
Hello Alan, I am not at home right now, but when I will be back next week, I will see if I have the manual for that exerciser. If so, then I will scan it to upload it on bitsavers.

One is a Century Data Systems T-302, and another is a Fujitsu Eagle. The T-302 is wonderful for impressing younger people who aren't familiar with older technology like 12-platter removable disk packs. :-) 220 volt, 30 amps starting, 6 amps running, all for a whole 256 megabytes (formatted). Thanks, Alan

I really appreciate all the work you do to keep this information available. > do you happen to have any service manuals for century data > winchesters? i have a bunch of manuals for the removable drives No, I do not. The only Century Data manuals I have are for the T-302, which I believe you already have. Alan Frisbie
