Hardware contributors:

The following individuals and businesses have generously contributed hardware for testing and device driver development/support:

*

BSDi for providing the Pentium P5-90 and 486/DX2-66 EISA/VL systems that are being used for our development work, to say nothing of the network access and other donations of hardware resources.
*

Compaq has donated a variety of Alpha systems to the FreeBSD Project. Among the many generous donations are 4 AlphaStation DS10s, an AlphaServer DS20, AlphaServer 2100s, an AlphaServer 4100, 8 500Mhz Personal Workstations, 4 433Mhz Personal Workstations, and more! These machines are used for release engineering, package building, SMP development, and general development on the Alpha architecture.
*

TRW Financial Systems, Inc. provided 130 PCs, three 68 GB file servers, twelve Ethernets, two routers and an ATM switch for debugging the diskless code.
*

Dermot McDonnell donated the Toshiba XM3401B CDROM drive currently used in freefall.
*

Chuck Robey <chuckr@glue.umd.edu> contributed his floppy tape streamer for experimental work.
*

Larry Altneu <larry@ALR.COM>, and Wilko Bulte <wilko@FreeBSD.org>, provided Wangtek and Archive QIC-02 tape drives in order to improve the wt driver.
*

Ernst Winter <ewinter@lobo.muc.de> contributed a 2.88 MB floppy drive to the project. This will hopefully increase the pressure for rewriting the floppy disk driver.
*

Tekram Technologies sent one each of their DC-390, DC-390U and DC-390F FAST and ULTRA SCSI host adapter cards for regression testing of the NCR and AMD drivers with their cards. They are also to be applauded for making driver sources for free operating systems available from their FTP server ftp://ftp.tekram.com/scsi/FreeBSD/.
*

Larry M. Augustin contributed not only a Symbios Sym8751S SCSI card, but also a set of data books, including one about the forthcoming Sym53c895 chip with Ultra-2 and LVD support, and the latest programming manual with information on how to safely use the advanced features of the latest Symbios SCSI chips. Thanks a lot!
*

Christoph Kukulies <kuku@FreeBSD.org> donated an FX120 12 speed Mitsumi CDROM drive for IDE CDROM driver development.
*

Mike Tancsa <mike@sentex.ca> donated four various ATM PCI cards in order to help increase support of these cards as well as help support the development effort of the netatm ATM stack.
