Heh, interesting. 256MB per stick, EDO...quite a rare find. I wonder if these would address as 128MB each if put in Blizzard accelerators for A1200 (e.g. BlizzardPPC and Blizzard12x0 + SCSI)?

wont work at all , as stated in the docs, they are designed for thoose hp servers..

256mb address range is the highest u can have on a blizzard card... and 128 on a cyberstorm.

for older blizzard cards...128 per slot. (ie if its a scsi addon on it)

Generally, HP server RAM uses ECC, and these don't have ECC. Regardless, I have successfully used a 128MB ECC SIMM on a Cyberstorm, so there is a chance that these SIMMs may work, for such a small investment, its worth a go.

erm i use ECC (2x128) in my bppc.

and your cyberstorm takes MAX 4x32mb sims..

and bppc is 2x128 MAX.

so i would say, rather save that money..
