Description
A datassette 1530 C2N-B. The datassette is a modified cassette recorder for use as a data medium. At the time, it was cheaper than a disk drive, but extremely very slow. The cord has a metal grounding wire for use with PET computers. On other devices, it is recommended to keep the wire tied back as to not short anything.
