One being a SyQuest parallel-port 270MB cartridge disk drive (3.5") which is functional along with 13 cartridges(SQ327) . I can still use it out of the case as its IDE. Core plane from a Sperry computer. The specifics was I tried to buy whole the computer when Grumman Plant 33 was closed. The memory was already parted out. Plant 33 was one of the plants where the LM (lunar module) was made. Yes, Sperry made computers and no, data, or even evidence of it is non-existent. Allison
