The Intel 310 is a desktop similar to a PC that uses any multibus 1
processor, 8080 to 80286. Actually I think it will run the Multibus 1 386
card too. It has a 6 slot Multibus chassis and uses 5 1/4 Hard and floppy
drives.
The 330 and 380s are the 16"X16"X24 white aluminum boxes. The 330 has a 6
slot Multibus card chassis combined with a 8" Floppy and 8" hard drive,
usually a Priam 3450 35 meg drive.
The 380 is a two 16"X16"X24 box set that is a 14 slot Multibus 1 backplane in
one of the boxes and the drives in a separate nearly identical cabinet,
usually housing a 1/4" tape drive along with the 8" floppy and 8 inch hard
drive.
Both the 330s and 380s will handle any Multibus CPU card from the 8080 to the
386. In fact the 380 can run multiple CPU cards.
86/330 indicates an 8086 card in a 330 cabinet.
The Intel 320 cabinet is a desktop with a Multibus II backplane that uses 5
1/4' drives. I don't have one of these.
I am going to sort this stuff out this winter & will catalog the docs then.
