Processor Internal Speed Model 486SX 25 MHz DECpc 425ST 486DX 33 MHz DECpc 433ST 486DX 50 MHz DECpc 450ST 486DX2 50 MHz DECpc 452ST 486DX2 66 MHz DECpc 466ST Modular, Upgradable Workstations This powerful, modular series of mini-tower 486 PC systems gives you more of what you look for in an EISA workstation: power and adaptability. Based on industry-standard PC design, the DECpc 400ST supports the entire family of high-powered 486 processors from the 25-MHz 486SX to the clock-doubled 66-MHz 486DX2, the fastest 486 processor currently available. This range provides entry-level packages for single-user systems as well as full capabilities for network server and other multi-user applications. And its modularity lets you reconfigure as your needs change. Standard Intel XpressTM architecture lets you upgrade the microprocessor easily through a user-installable plug-in card. And a scalable system architecture makes the DECpc ST family ready for the next generation Pentium microprocessors, growing with you well into the future. Power Package To support workstation and network server applications, the DECpc ST family packs room for many storage and peripheral options into a compact vertical design. It supports up to 192 MB of RAM in convenient SIMM kits that let you add memory in 4,8,16 or 32 MB increments. (The 4, 8, and 16-MB kits use 80-nanosecond RAM; the 32-MB kit uses 70 nanosecond RAM.) Expandable external cache memory speeds up CPU performance. Four available disk bays support a wide choice of drives, from 52MB IDE to 1.05 GB SCSI, as well as 3.5- and 5.25-inch floppies, optical drives, and tape backup. Six EISA expansion slots provide plenty of room for high-performance options. The DECpc ST family's integrated serial, parallel, keyboard, and mouse ports leave all six slots truly available for customization. Space-Saving Cabinet Efficient package design puts all this capacity into a slim system unit that fits neatly under a desk. Its vertical configuration gives it a minimal footprint, yet its easy-open cabinet makes it readily accessible for reconfiguration. Reliable Digital Support All these great features come in a package built to last and covered by Digital's one-year on-site warranty. Digital support means your DECpc ST is backed by a company long known for quality. A company with an international service and support network, and decades of experience helping users get the most from computers. Which means you'll get more than prompt repair service. You'll get expert help making decisions on applications, networking, and peripherals as well. That's the Digital difference. And in the fast-moving world of the PC, it can mean all the difference.
