Hardware Description

NCR V-8500m computers offer a simple, flexible way to improve performance by upgrading to multiprocessing whenever applications outgrow the constraints of a single- processor environment. Typically, a balanced dual-processor system provides from 1.5 to 1 .8 times the performance of a comparable single-processor system, depending upon the nature of the job mix. Although dual processing is the principal operating mode, system architecture and operating software can accommodate up to four processors in one system.
