Snap M4100 Memory

aterman · 08-23-2006, 09:22 AM

I have a 128 MB stick of memory in my snap and need to know what the board is running at; 100, 133MHZ etc. the stick has the following: 70700108-002 rev A on it's bar code.
I'm scrounging around to find a compatible 256 or even 512.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
MoBo is: Quantum 70715048-003.A

I see you're staff and I appreciate the reply. This is my first time to your site. Where do I go to find the dedicated etc so I can ask correctly and get the answer for this memory question?
Thanks again
Steven

I think t is posted in the wiki section. They use a PC100/133 (low density) chips on both sides, non-eec.

If you install a new ram chip, you can check the capacity with "debug memory". This is entered through the snaps hidden debug page. (http://snapaddress/config/debug)

Thanks blue - I thought it was a 133 but without indicators, I thought it best to ask. I tried Adaptec support, sales and looked at the pdf spec sheet. Adaptec; who bought the SNAP division from Quantum, couldn't answer this seemingly simple question.
Thanks again,

High density chips do not work. If you use them like a 256meg, only 1/2 will be used.

Don't bother with a 512 either, a 4100 won't recognize any more than 256.

I just updated my 4100 (dell 705n) with 256mb ram. I used

Kingston ValueRAM: KVR133X64C3Q/256 - ValueRAM SDRAM PC133 256MB

It works fine. The ram is double sided (low density).
