So i've been (with Steve D's) help researching upgrading the RAM on my DS10.
The HP part number 3X-MS310-EA. From what I can gather, this is a kit of 200 pin, 100 mhz 512 MB set of DIMMs.
Would generic RAM do instead?* If so, what spec? Anyone got pointers to a site that sells them (pref. in UK or EU), or maybe wants to unload some on me?

* The prices are pretty crazy high, 100-150 USD or so.

Hello!
And what prompted this idea? Dial up access is indeed very retro. Most
people don't realize that the Internet worked over largely leased
lines, and sometimes on the campus side of the net, via dial up but
only on demand, and typically late at night, to catch up on those
things that were not necessary for every day use......

There is no real VMS equivalent for the dd command.
The closest thing is to mount the disk as a foreign device. Then you might try backup to copy data towards it. The copy command won't work I think, though it does so on a foreign mounted tape.

Onderwerp: [HECnet] N00b question - dd equiv on VMS
Verzonden: 25 oktober 2011 20:44
I want to write the contents of a file directly onto a device, like you would on say Unix with dd:
dd if=infile of=/dev/outdevice
How do I do this on VMS?

What about the LD driver...?

Depending on the nature of the "outdevice", it could be as simple as "COPY infile device:".
If the device is one that is typically mounted, like a disk or tape, then it would have to have its media mounted, perhaps with MOUNT/FOREIGN if you want the raw data written to the device without worrying about any sort of file structure.
What kind of device is "outdevice"?

Wouldn't you rather run V8.3-1H1? Or do you
specifically want V8.3, for comparison or so?
