| Powerbook memory question |

Have a 4mb module from a 140-170. If the ram was removed will it work on a 180 memory expansion card with empty slots? I am guessing not, but curious just in case. |

I'm not sure if I'm interpreting your wording correctly. Are you wanting to transplant chips from one memory card to another? That is certainly possible to do and can work. |

Hi there, yes thats what i am saying. Sorry for confusion. Only issue, is on the powerbook 180 expansion one chip says 9337 658511ltt-85. On other side of board it says 9335 658512lfp-85. On the actual logic board it says 9327 658512ltt-85 on both sides of board. So why does expansion have the lfp chip on one side? It is thicker too. I added pictures of both sides of logic board and both sides of expansion. Thanks for the help |

Yes it will work. The thick chips can only go on the bottom as there's no room to put them on the top. Mixing package types is perfectly fine. |
