【 Item Description 】
This vintage AST SixPakPremium is a rare and highly collectible boxed expansion board for the IBM PC, XT, and compatible systems. Unlike the more common SixPakPlus, the SixPakPremium version offered support for Enhanced Expanded Memory Specification (EEMS), making it a more advanced and desirable upgrade in the early personal computing era. Pieces like this appeal not only to vintage computer users, but also to collectors of boxed IBM-compatible hardware and retro PC components.

This set appears to be a very complete example and includes the original retail packaging, documentation, and software disk, giving it strong display and collector value in addition to restoration potential.

What’s included:

• Original AST SixPakPremium board
• Original box
• Original manual / documentation
• Original 5.25" floppy disk with SuperPak utility software

Brand/Maker: AST Research
Model: SixPakPremium
Era: Vintage IBM PC / XT era
Material: Printed circuit board, cardboard packaging, paper manual, magnetic floppy disk
Measurements: Standard 8-bit ISA expansion board format

【 Condition Report 】
This set is being sold as-is for parts, repair, or restoration due to its vintage electronic nature. It appears very complete and may be New Old Stock or lightly used, but it has not been tested because I do not have a compatible system. The original yellow foam inside the box has deteriorated with age, and there is visible foam residue/adhesion on the back of the board and pins. I have not attempted to clean it, as improper cleaning could damage the hardware. The original onboard battery is still present and should be inspected carefully for voltage and possible leakage before any attempt at use. The box shows shelf wear from age and storage but remains structurally sound. Please review all photos carefully for the best understanding of condition and detail. Sold as-is.
