I recently added an XT/286 (5162) to my collection. I had been looking for a nice one of these for a long time.
The case is in excellent condition, even the bottom looks like new and still has the original cork pads. The system
is very clean inside, and fortunately no battery droppings on the motherboard.
Inside the XT/286 were the following cards:
1) ITT EGA Card (I replaced this with an IBM EGA card)
2) IBM serial/parallel card
3) Seagate ST22 MFM (and floppy) controller
Drives:
IBM full height Tandon TM-100
Seagate ST-225 MFM drive (with a manufactured for IBM label)
Also came with an IBM AT keyboard, not a Model M.
I'm wondering if the Seagate controller and drive are original to this machine.
I think the full height floppy may be original because I found several other pictures
of XT/286's with full height floppy drives.
I attached a few pictures of the system :
