What kind of RAM is this?

[generaltso]

Can someone tell me what kind of RAM this is? I thought it was Corsair 512MB x 2 ValueSelect, but I am not so sure.

and zoomed in chip:

No stickers are any identifying markings on it. I think those chips are 32MB each (for a total of 512MB on each stick). The chip is M5M4V16S30BTP

Thanks!

That's PC-66 SDRAM. Very old stuff you have there.

No, the chips have -10 on them which denotes 10nS.

so they are pretty much worthless, right?!

If you have an old PII/Skt7 system that uses PC-66 SDRAM DIMMS it can be used. Outside of that, keychain.

sell them on craigslist. old computer parts can occasionally have artificially inflated values due to zero-supply / small-demand considerations.

So we identified it as PC-66, but what is the capacity?

Are they single or double sided modules? I've got a few PC66 SDRAM double sided modules in my garage and they're almost all 32MB per module.

Zap, thanks for the reply. They are all double sided. I believe each chip is 32MB... but am not 100%. If that was the case, with 16 chips we would be looking at 512MB a stick. Just trying to get the facts straight before I sell this stuff for a couple bucks!!
