Talos I

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.
