so you've got a good old one there.  I wish I knew that someone still 
was collecting Indigos.  I turned my Indigo R4400 150 MHz into Best Buy 
for recycling just a little while ago.  It had top of the line graphics
in it, except for that fact it was missing the Z buffer board.

I still have 2 hard drives (SGI PN 9410824 and a Seagate Barracuda 9 GB, 
both IRIX 6.2 I think, though one still might be 5.3), one DDS tape 
drive, and all three are on sleds still.

I recycled the Indigo because the TOD battery died, and I wasn't willing 
to spend the effort to solder a new battery in its place.  I figured it 
would cost me more to buy a battery than I could get selling the Indigo. 
  You don't even want to know how much I paid for that 9 GB hard disk 
back in 2000 or so...
