LF: IBM Desktop ram

[onigiri]

Hey, I recently got a few ibm desktops and I've been told they take ibm-only ram. I have IBM Intellistation M Pro. Looking for ram to upgrade. Looking for 512mb or 1gb and up. Thanks!

You should at least give the TYPE/Model of those desktops, and the type of RAM it takes: SODIMM or DIMM, SDRAM, DDR, DDR2,etc., speed PC2100/PC2700/PC3200 etc.

Some of those took Rambus RDRAM Not saying that's what he needs but just throwing that out there.
I have a dual Xeon M Pro here that takes it. I'm not using it so if that's what you need maybe I can help.

Ops, I didn't that stuff was needed. Type: 6230, Model: MEU. What's currently on there is DDR PC2700. Hmmm, does that mean it can take any DDR PC2700? It doesn't have to be IBM branded?

[RealBlackStuff]

Any PC2700 or PC3200 DDR desktop RAM should work, no need to buy (expensive) IBM branded.
Just make sure that the CL value (e.g. CL-2.5, CL-3, etc.) is the same as what you find printed on your current RAM.

This machine also requires ECC memory. PC3200 should be CL3, PC2700 memory should be CL2.5.

I may gave some of this. I'm pretty sure that I do. If I do, it would be 2 512MB sticks. PM me an offer if you are interested in the two sticks.
