The 9121D monitor was a dual, 3.5 inch floppy disc drive with an HP-IB interface. A grid of electrical beams on all fours sides of the screen gave the monitor touch screen capability. Its drives accomodated SS/DD discs (270KB). The 9121S was the single drive version of the 9121, priced at $1185. The 9121 was the first HP product to come in the new slimline, stackable form factor. HP used this form factor for computers and disc drives for over ten years.

The 9121 used the AMIGO command set.

The 9121 was obsoleted in November of 1987.

You can use your PC's hard drive (with an HP-IB board installed) to emulate this drive with vintage HP computers.
