I am pleased to say that I own a fully-working Acorn Winchester Disc 130, which is in sharp contrast to the other Acorn Winchester Disc I own, which has a broken power supply and the hard disc itself missing!

This item arrived in December 2006 along with my Digistore Tape Drive and I am very proud of these two rare iems.

The first picture set shows the Winchester Disc in detail, then we have a look at formatting it, then we fill it up with some exciting data by creating a backup of my FileStore E20, and then we make a second copy of the FileStore data by copying the first set. More picture sets then look at the Acorn Winchester Disc through the ages. Well, since it's been here any way, and I do hope you will click on the links above to learn more.
