Giving away parts and options from an IBM PS/2 Model 50Z. Some of the parts include a malfunctioning system board and Acculogic SIMMply-RAM expansion board. The planar with Intel 80286 processor does not work; when connected to a power supply, the power supply does not turn on, even though the power supply tests fine and turns on when not connected to the planar. Take it for your collection or for repair. The memory expansion board adds as much as 8 MB RAM to an IBM PS/2 models 50, 50Z, 60, 70, and 80. The board has eight slots for 30-pin SIMMs; slots are all occupied, but I do not know the amount of memory. The board with eight SIMMs, quick start guide, reference manual, and installation and program diskettes (one 5¼-inch and one 3½-inch) are included. To contact me, send me a private message.

Update: IBM PS/2 parts no longer available here. See the Vintage Computer and Gaming Marketplace for any available parts.

IBM parts..

I'll take the complete motherboard. Can you fit it in a mailer box?
Let me know the shipping cost. (I don't need overnight service, just regular snail-mail will do.)
I am in ZIP code 60614, Chicago, IL.

BTW, I have an IBM 5150 and need an EGA color monitor for it. Got one? I mod-ed my PC from the awful GREEN SCREEN CGM.
I also need a RLL hard drive-preferably over 30MB,\.
Thanks,
John O'C.

Parts for IBM PS/2 Model 50z

Dear Allen,

I have a model 50z with a bad floppy drive. Am unable to copy any files
to move to another computer. I desperately need a replacement drive or
another computer which I can move the hard drive to. If you can help I would
be forever grateful.

Thanks, Waldo1
 
Hi Waldo,
I have some 3.5" floppy drives. Tell me what you have and I'll see if I have one that will be supported by your PC.
Where are you located? USA?

-John
 
I am looking for replacement for the original 3.5 floppy drive for my IBM PS2, Model 50Z. Part # stamped on the drive is PN15F7503. I am in Michigan, 48879.

Thanks for checking.

I have some 3.5" floppy drives that support double sided, double density disks.
Would one of these work for your IBM?
I don't have a drive with that part #.
What is the brand of your old drive?
-J.
