---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Florida SunFlash New 1.05-gb Configurations for upgrades for Upgrades to SPARCstation 10 Model 41 SunFLASH Vol 51 #3 March 1993 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sun announces an addition to its line of upgrades to the SPARCstation(TM) 10. Available immediately are 1.05-GB internal disk drive configurations for upgrades to the SPARCstation 10 Model 41. That means customers who are upgrading from SPARCstation 1, SPARCstation 2, and SPARCstation IPX(TM) can choose a SPARCstation 10 Model 41 diskfull chassis swap upgrade which includes a 1.05-GB internal disk drive. Upgrade configurations with the 424-MB internal disk drives remain available. The chassis swap upgrades to SPARCstation 10 Model 41 offer customers dramatic improvements in performance while maintaining their investment in their monitor, frame buffer and other SBus cards (some exceptions noted in price list), internal disks(s), external peripherals, keyboard and mouse. AVAILABILITY ------------- The new upgrade configurations are available immediately. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS --------------------- Q. Will the 1.05GB disk be available on the upgrades to SPARCstation 10 Model 30? A. Not at this time. The majority of customers who upgrade to the SPARCstation 10 Model 30 are interested in the lower price point offered with the 424MB configuration. Customers upgrading to the SPARCstation 10 Model 30 can add an internal or external 1.05GB disk drive (order numbers X545A and X546A, respectively). Q. If I recently took delivery of a 424MB configuration would it be possible to upgrade my 424MB disk to a 1.05GB disk now ? A. A customer can add a 1.05GB disk into the second disk slot of the SPARCstation 10, but we have no plans at this time for a disk upgrade from a 424MB to a 1.05GB disk. Q. Does this announcement mean that the 424MB upgrade configurations are being transitioned off the price list? A. No. Both 424MB and 1.05GB configurations will continue to be in place.
