Z2 memory board? Should work, but it will probably slow the system down (Z2 being dogslow).

It doesn't slow until used - and as it's priority should be the lowest of fast RAM, it's used only when the faster RAM is full. I have tested with A4000 containing CSPPC, Mobo and Oktagon RAM. Filled until Oktagon was used - well, a nice crawl then. But may help in emergency cases when memory threatens to fill up.

Yes. I've got one with 6 Mb on my A3000 and works perfectly.

Blah about as useful as a A2091 then eh? Slow.. but works.. wish there was an easier way to add RAM.. i'll be limited to 16MB for awhile I think.. until I can find an 040 board for it....
