The IBM System/370 Model 145 was announced September 23, 1970,[1] three months after the 155 and 165[2] models. It was the fourth member of the IBM System/370 line of computers,[3] and was the first IBM computer to use semiconductor memory for its main memory instead of magnetic core memory.[4] It was described as being five times faster than the IBM System/360 Model 40. First shipments were scheduled for late summer of 1971.[1]

New capabilities

The System/370's basic architecture was described as having been an extension, but not a redesign, from that of IBM's 1964-introduced System/360.[2]

The 370 introduced some new instructions, such as

  • MOVE CHARACTER LONG (MVCL) and
  • COMPARE CHARACTER LONG (CLCL),

thereby permitting operations on up to 224-1 bytes (16 MB), vs. the 256-byte limits on the 360's MVC and CLC,[5][6] but lacked a DAT (Dynamic Address Translation) box.

Virtual memory

Some said about the early members of the IBM System/370 family, looking back, that they were not "the real 370 line" because "neither offered virtual storage capability, which was to be a hallmark of the 370 line."[7]

Unlike the earlier Model 155 and 165 systems, for which an upgrade to virtual memory required the purchase of an expensive upgrade to add a DAT box,[7] the 145's customers had two advantages:

  • 370/145 customers did not have to wait as long for this lack of virtual memory to be remedied[NB 1]
  • there was no need to buy extra hardware: An upgrade to the 145's microcode through a new microcode floppy disk[8] enabled virtual memory capability.

VM/CMS

Upon gaining virtual memory capability via a microcode update, the 145 could now support the VMF (Virtual Machine Facility) and VM/CMS, a time-sharing system.
