Advantech PCD-897 1906897010 ISA DiskOnChip Flash Disk Card

This is a working DiskOnChip ISA interface card with a 48MB DiskOnChip. I tried it in my IBM model 30-286 and it boots to a DOS prompt. It’s useful for setting up a vintage 286 system and not have to use a noisy hard drive. I can’t attest to compatibility with other systems. As I said I only tested this in my IBM machine. I recall I tried it on an XT machine and it didn’t work. There is information available online on how to initialize the chip and set it up. Check my other auctions for more chips if you need more space.
