IBM 5150 PC Disassembly
Loading...
Uploaded by bbishoppcm on Jun 28, 2009
This is my new IBM PC. This machine has seen some significant upgrades since it was manufactured on December 9, 1982. The upgrades consist of the addition of a 10 MB IMI hard disk drive a Western Digital MFM ST-506 compatible controller, an upgraded power supply, an NEC V20 8 MHz CPU, a memory expansion board, and a serial interface. I found this machine on Craigslist, and decided to give it a thorough cleaning.

Thanks for the video.
I had never seen an IBM 5150 open.
The IBM 5150 computer is fully compatible with the IBM5160?

3:16 I had a hard drive like that one time. Wish I knew where it is. 4:55 I have a fix it yourself book titled home electronics and it's by time life books and it shows a computer system similar to this one. down to the belt and timing strobe (timing marks) on that flywheel. Also exactly how powerful is that spindle motor?

That should be called an AT board.
