Not really retro, but retro looking.
A Samsung NX300.

I wanted another more casual camera so after reading
http://op-co.de/blog/posts/hacking_the_nx300/ and
http://op-co.de/blog/posts/rooting_the_nx300/
i thought i give it a shot.
The firmware must have been programmed by an intern^^
I can't even bring the cam in my WLAN because my PSK is longer than 20 characters. 😁
But i will keep it, the hackability can only come in good. 😁
Edit: The picture 😉

Try re-sizing your image. It's way too large for (any) forums on the internet, and it's so big it clips off the right side of the post here.

When selecting parts for my current main rig 8 years ago, I included one of the first available 10K WD Raptors (I guess it was 75GB) paired with 7200 rpm 250 Gb Seagate drive. It was a big hit, everyone was talking about them as the fastest hard drives in the world 😀 Unfortunately, I was but a kid, and my father's colleague who ordered and bought the thing excluded Raptor (as well as bought a regular x1800GTO instead of x1800GTO2) because he thought it was unreliable. That still bugs me. I could have installed an SSD or a second-hand Raptor by now, but it never came to it.

That sting ray is quite rare. I have the newer version and it seems to outperform Voodoo 1 in fill rate. You should do some tests.

The dual plane versions are definitely more rare, but rarest of all is the 8MB PCI single plane version. Took me forever to find one but I now have these in my collection for a total of 5!

Can you take a picture of your Stingrays? 😀

Yeah, you hardly ever see the S3318 version - it's always the S3316 everywhere. I have em linked in my sig - click on the OneDrive link.

Where do I find this S-number? Mine is a GB3910P Rev A 1996, with GB3920P 1997 daughterboard.

I believe the S# is just the part number. Since yours has the 'daughterboard' it's the older model S3316 - dual plane as they called it. The newer versions are single plane (aka no daughterboard).

My haul today.. All for 10 euros.

This nice computer case:
i78kdz.jpg

Only the bad thing is the pci slot bracket thing on the back isnt original it seems because when stick cards in, they are not aligned nice.

The nice thing was:

15mhfso.jpg

The protection sheet on the display spot was still on the case.. because it was already sitting at least 20 years, the glue did dry it on the plastic.. So i had to clean it with a clamp throwing away cloth.

The case is one of a kind down side up one.. So you need to flip the motherboard 180 degrees..

The case inside

The configuration seems to be..

486 Cyrix 40mhz processor
Chicony CH-498B rev 2.0 VLB motherboard (with VRM)
8 MB FPM 72 pin SIMM memory
250 MB old style AT drive (a very slow one)
An expertvision OPTI isa (later style soundcard)

And luckly i found one if these in this case:

file.php?id=14307

And got also this keyboard for the same price:

25ztc1j.jpg

And this old style logitech m-m30 serial mouse.. not heavly used stuff, still looking nice..

I know i always keep my eyes open if i can.

I want to see if i can use this case on my v20 XT build.. If the board would be mounted fine i will sliding the case iam now using to my 286 build..
The nice part of this case is, its very compact. Because AT style computers maybe using bigger motherboards, i prefer to bigger one for an 286 build.
