My new POWER Indigo 2

JP's Website My new POWER Indigo 2 Posted on 2024-11-22 On Mastodon, I recently came across a post by Kestral, with a link to their website: I find myself with significantly less time than I’d like to work on restoring all of these devices, so my hope is that folk in the community will take some off my hands, lovingly restore, and help to keep computer history alive. Get in touch with me in the Fediverse if anything here sparks joy.

I can see three spaces for slotting in what I assume at this point at SCSI drives (they are) fitted to some kind of disk sled I don't have (and which turn out to be quite expensive). Based on some Swiss price lists I found, a 64MB POWER Indigo 2 with XZ Graphics and a 2GB SCSI drive would run you around £58,000. This will run a complete bad-block sweep and lay down an SGI disk label - their equivalent of an MS-DOS partition table.
