| Strange Memory Expanders |
Posted by: aplmak on 2022-11-26 09:07:48 Look at these strange memory expanders.. one is angled. These were in a Performa 600… not sure yet how much ram it is. |
Posted by: Coloruser on 2022-11-26 10:44:45 not so unusual. I remember that I once used similar ones to adapt the old 72pin SIMMs from the 1. generation of Power Macs to the 2nd generation’s 168pin DIMM Slot |
Posted by: aplmak on 2022-11-27 12:39:33 I just hadn’t seen these before. I have 72 pin to 30 pin adapters. This is just 30 pin to 30 pin to add another 30 pin module. |

Posted by: olePigeon on 2022-11-30 12:20:27 I like that design better. I have some "SIMMExpander" things, but the SIMM slots are perpendicular, making it difficult to use. So to be able to use them, they sold them right-facing, left-facing, short, and tall. |
