It has two 5 1/4" disk drives, and a 1/4" QIC tape drive in the top of the tower. It runs the PRIMOS operating system, so it is software compatible with all of the 50 Series machines. It has decimal arithmetic in hardware to improve COBOL performance, and has quad-precision floating point hardware.
The RICM has two of these systems with serial numbers PR 3572 and PR 3573.
