Talos I or the Talos Secure Workstation was the original Talos™ system proposed by Raptor Computing Systems. As its crowdfunding effort on the CrowdSupply website was unsuccessful, this system was never created. A prototype mainboard was never made, yet some tests to simulate Talos I operation were run on an IBM S822LC Firestone server.
The Talos I design used a single POWER8 SCM chip and two Centaur memory buffers.
In contrast, Talos I's successor, Talos II, uses up to two POWER9 chips and directly attached memory.
Mainboard
Specifications (proposed)
| Mainboard Part # | Form Factor | Sockets | CPU Type | Networking | Storage Controller |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| unknown | ATX | 1 | POWER8 SCM | 2x GbE | SATA |
Systems
In addition to being sold as a mainboard, the Talos I proposal also included pre-built systems.
| SKU | Name |
