Please don't forget to pop the battery out before shipping

That big yellow guy is a 9volt relay (most likely w/ a nicad).
The green board has a lithium button cell

Did that finger card come off a hard drive? It looks similar to an hdd board off an old school 20mb hard drive. If so. I sold similar boards as hdd board class. If it is from an old hard drive I would email Chris to see if it's good for hard drive board before putting it with gold finger cards. Those weigh 6-8 oz each ur looking at a few dollar difference to put it in the right pile.

If it's from a hard drive I would pull off those little heat sinks and put it with hard drive boards. If not. Leave the heat sinks and put with gold finger cards. Check with Chris to be safe but I'm fairly certain I'm correct here.

I too believe that's from a 5 1/4 full hight drive.
It's missing the two controllers. The difference, from what I've sent, between telco and hard drive is having those two ICs.
Considering we're in doubt here, I'd email Chris and ask.
chris@boardsort.com

I'm also 75% sure there's a small nicad battery in that relay package (The yellow brick).
To remove it safely (and keep everyone safe) use a pair of locking pliers, clamp the centre just tightly enough to see the plastic bend (or here it pop/snap) and then yank hard straight up. A bit of force but they come out pins and all. Usually 4 pins, two on each side, or six if two in the middle. Pins can be snipped and sold separately. battery can be recycled at any electronics store.

I can't remember if I pulled those Ics off the ones I had. I would imagine I did not. Considering I was hoping to have a half pound hard drive board which would be better than a few extra ics.

True that. I was repairing an old drive farm and had pulled the working ones to replace damaged ones among other issues. Got an email back that the the ones i had asked abouz, all 5.25 boards without controllers were graded as telco.
But again i didn't have the controllers so it's possible...?
