[Stifko]

The below link is for 256MB 100MHz ECC SDRAM RDIMM Memory at $419.00!!!

what other type of memory could be used that is cheaper?

the machine is a 6898 18u intellistation m pro w/2 PIIIs

RDimm = Rambus. Try using pc133 sdram if thats compatible with your system.

Or maybe I was thinking of RIMM. I dunno, looks like youre gonna be forking over some cash tho

Yep thats Rdram. It's slower and more expensive ram.

RDIMM is most likely registered DIMM

Edit: from about the middle of the page: Description 256MB 100MHz ECC SDRAM Reg. DIMM

check the bottom of the page:

Memory capacity 256 MB
Memory type ECC SDRAM
Average access time 100MHz
Form factor DIMM

It is Error Correcting PC100 SDRAM.

RIMM is Rambus not RDIMM, and Rambus doesn't run at 100Mhz.

Stifko, I would check the Crucial site.

This looks like it would work, you can ask Crucial on their web site to confirm that it is the correct memory for you computer.

When you are ready to order, go through this link.

Hehe, that was funny... slower, yeah, right... And NO the RAM mentioned in this thread is not RB, RB is not SDRAM.

If you think that RB mem is just a slower form of SDRAM, then maybe you shouldn't tell anyone about your thoughts.
