[SunRescue] SS5 Memory

[Mike Hebel]

Well www.memoryx.com doesn't say exactly but you can compare:

http://www.memoryx.net/sparc5.html
with http://www.memoryx.net/sparc10.html

and look at the individual parts for the answer.

In fact this: http://www.memoryx.net/5012471.html shows that
the SS5 uses 168pin DIMMS while this: http://www.memoryx.net/ss2064.html
shows that the SS10 uses 200pin DIMMS (which I think somebody already
mentioned).

So the answer is that you can't use SS10/20 RAM but you can find a good
deal on the SS5 RAM http://www.memoryx.net/ss532.html .

My guess is that you can't use "regular" DIMMS but I may be wrong on it.
You should contact MemoryX on it because they almost certainly know far more
than I do.

Just my $.02. ;-)

Hi,

does anyone out there know what type of memory these machines take?

i'm told that ss10/ss20 are edo ecc dimms, but that the ss5/4 differs.

i've seen sun part numbers x132m for ss4/5, x132f for ss10, and x132p for
ss10/20.

is there something special about the sun dimms, or will "standard" EDO ECC
dimms work?

thanks,

dave.
