As a system manager, you need to know what a 900 Series computer system is
and what systems are in the 900 Series family. The 900 Series is a member of
the Hewlett-Packard Precision Architecture (PA-RISC) family that shares a
common RISC architecture. These reduced instruction set computers (RISC)
can use the same software without modification. The terms used to identify the families of computers are shown
in Figure 12-1 “Sample System Processor Units of the HP 3000 Family”. Table 12-1 900 Series HP 3000 Computers | Family | Model Numbers |

On every model of the 900 Series HP 3000:
*All operating system software is compatible.
*Distributed terminal controllers (DTCs) are supported. Networks are supported on these systems. The following peripherals are supported on these systems:
tape drives (1600 and 6250 BPI) disk drives (removable and nonremovable) digital data storage (DDS) units line printers and page printers
(Note, data cartridges are not supported.)
How you configure your system (for example, the maximum number of DTC's,
disks, system and serial printers, and
the maximum amount of memory) depends upon the particular model
you have. The following table gives you some basic information;
for complete data, consult your Hewlett-Packard field service representative. Table 12-2 900 Series HP 3000 Comparisons | Model | Maximum Workstations | Maximum Memory |
