Those were great cards.. When new, I used those in a bunch of AST Brand 486 servers that I ran Netware 3.12 on.. Haven't used EISA since about '94 I guess..
Zou opletten dat die Eproms die op die kaarten zitten geen bit rot beginnen te krijgen. Want dan zijn deze straks niks meer waard dan een baksteen als je ze werkend wilt houden. En het is ook niet zo gek dat ze naar 35 jaar geheugen bits beginnen te verliezen. Als je een backup er van maakt en de roms blijken nog goed te zijn, heb je tenminste nog de data waarmee je nieuwe eproms kan maken.
I have two systems with EISA. 486 DX2 66 with VLB/EISA and dual processor Pentium 90 with PCI/EISA mainboard. But unfortunately I don't have any cards. Hardly anyone offers them anymore.
I have a few EISA cards, SCSI cards etc. I think I have everything you have there lol. I know they work I packaged them up myself back in the 90's. I've been deciding on what retro stuff to keep and what to get rid of. I'll probably look for a swap meet.
@@victorbart one of the RUclips retro channel guys messaged me and offered to repair my old 520st mb for free. I may offer them to him . I'm setting up a server with a scsi card and all the old media systems I have collected. Zip 250, hp sure store, burnoulli, even an ls-120. I even found a dual 5 1/4 , 3 1/2 drive.
i got a HUGE scsi .. two..

Fujitsu ICL servers from the mid 1990s used EISA. Maybe this is the sort of hardware you should be looking for. :) Also, are any of these cards from one of your really old vlogs where you went buying retro hardware with a friend?

Wow, super video. Thanks for good day.

Yes give them a good home if you going to slim your collection!

Great video!
i have a ASUS EISA-486E ... still works with my modellrailroad ... 🤷♂
would you ever like to sell that board?
@@adityar981 nope
@@carstuskaktus7638 I expected that, but if you ever change your mind, kindly reply to this comment. Even if it takes 10-15 years ;)
👍
ISA - 8 Bit
EISA - 16 BUT
VLB and PCI - 32 BIT
ISA had both 8-bit (PC bus) and 16-bit (AT Bus)
EISA was 32-bit
ISA's split into two categories, the XT clone standard (8 Bit) and the AT clone standard (16 Bit)
