Memory for Blizzard PPC
« on: September 04, 2006, 05:37:29 PM »
Hey all,

I just layed my hands on a BPPC/68040 with 16MB RAM fitted (I presume 50 Euro is a bargain, right?).
I don't have it in posession yet, but I already am planning to put some more memory on it.

Can I get any standard 72-pin SIMM for use with it, or does it have to be a specific type? (single sided maybe?)

Also: it has no SCSI controller. Is it possible to add that later on, or does SCSI come only with the 603e+ version?


Cheers,
Eric

What's the maximum that can be fitted on the board?

If you want to get SCSI on your card, you'd better ask it to amigacenter if you can get the needed chips.


Hmm, 256MB might just do trick I guess  :lol:

Anyway, if any soldering is involved I might as well skip it then, or wait until I'm going to need/use SCSI and then send it to someone who can do it.
I'm afraid that if I'm going to solder anything, I'll end up with one big pile of melted metal with some silicium in it... :flame:

Well, thanks for the replies. I can't wait until my new baby arrives (somewhere at the end of this month, together with my 1438 monitor)
