In 1992, the VAX 7000 model 600 data center system was the most powerful VAX system to date. It was the high-end successor to the VAX 6000 data center systems, the most expandable data center system ever, and was field-upgradable to the Alpha 64-bit processor.

Designed around Digital's high-performance CMOS technology, the VAX 7000 provided full error protection on the system bus, all memory modules, and the write-back cache.
