Are we able to install different versions of RPM on the same hard drive without any issues? Example: RPM9, RPM13E, and RPM14.

To anyone looking to acquire commercial radio programming software:
Please do not make requests for copies of radio programming software which is sold (or was sold) by the manufacturer for any monetary value. All requests will be deleted and a forum infraction issued. Making a request such as this is attempting to engage in software piracy and this forum cannot be involved or associated with this activity. The same goes for any private transaction via Private Message. Even if you attempt to engage in this activity in PM's we will still enforce the forum rules. Your PM's are not private and the administration has the right to read them if there's a hint to criminal activity.
If you are having trouble legally obtaining software please state so. We do not want any hurt feelings when your vague post is mistaken for a free request. It is YOUR responsibility to properly word your request.
To obtain Motorola software see the Sticky in the Motorola forum.
The various other vendors often permit their dealers to sell the software online (i.e., Kenwood). Please use Google or some other search engine to find a dealer that sells the software. Typically each series or individual radio requires its own software package. Often the Kenwood software is less than $100 so don't be a cheapskate; just purchase it.
For M/A Com/Harris/GE, etc: there are two software packages that program all current and past radios. One package is for conventional programming and the other for trunked programming. The trunked package is in upwards of $2,500. The conventional package is more reasonable though is still several hundred dollars. The benefit is you do not need multiple versions for each radio (unlike Motorola).
This is a large and very visible forum. We cannot jeopardize the ability to provide the RadioReference services by allowing this activity to occur. Please respect this.

Oh okay. I didn't want to have to overwrite my current installation. I'll just use another hard drive. Thank you!
Get a stack of decent used Dell D620/D630/D820/D830 laptops and install each version on each one separately.
Or, if you're crafty, just get several SSDs, mount them in sleds, don't put the retention screws in, and use them as swappable drives
in the same laptop. Each with its own full installed OS and the appropriate version RPM. Just remember, this isn't HOT swappable. Only
swap those drives when the PC is turned OFF. Not sleeping or standby, OFF.
