I want to upgrade my momery RAM
« on: February 16, 2012, 05:59:43 PM »
Hey,
 
I want to upgrade my memory RAM of my Amiga I have this card: http://amiga-hardware.com/showhardware.cgi?HARDID=127
 
I tried eBay but I am unable to find this type of RAM, am I missing something? I want to upgrade my memory RAM from 16 MB to 128 MB or even 64 MB I am ok with it.

?? like this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p5197.m570.l1313&_nkw=72pin+128+mb+simm&_sacat=See-All-Categories

 
Exactly!! I was about to buy it this very second but I got this error on eBay:
 
This seller has set buyer requirements for this item and only sells to buyers who meet those requirements.
•You are unable to bid on or buy this item because the seller doesn't post to the country where your primary delivery address is located.
• If you are still interested in bidding on or buying this item, you may contact the seller and ask that they exempt you from any buyer requirements.

 
So I guess this is not going to work out for me, BUT YES this is the RAM I need for my card.

I dont know where are you located, but here are some ebay results:

I guess you need 72 pin SIMM EDO or FastPage Mode.

I think my Blizzard IV take both, and yours is similar.
A500 KS 2.1, 1MB Chip, 68000
A600 KS 3.1, 2MB Chip, ACA630 32MB RAM
A1000 KS 1.3, 8MB RAM
A1200 KS 3.1, Blizzard IV 50MHz 64MB RAM
A2000 KS 2.1, 68030 25MHz, 6MB RAM
A3000 KS 3.1, 68030 25MHz, 16MB RAM
A4000 KS 3.0, 68040 25MHz, 16MB RAM
CDTV KS 3.1, 4MB RAM
CD32

It looks like it takes normal typical 72 pin simms. The same type like a Blizzard card or similar would take. Make sure it isn't one of those cards that is specific about double sided or single sided simms though.
A1200HD- Blizzard 1230IV / 64Mb / Kick 3.1 / OS 3.9 / 20GB HD
A4000 040 @33Mhz -Kick 3.1 / 16MB
A2000 Rev4.4 - \'030 @25Mhz / 8MB / Kick 3.1 / ClassicWB
CD32 -     Stock (W/ 2 CD32 Controllers]
A500 Plus - 68000 / 2MB Chip / 2Mb Fast / 2.04/1.3 / A590 / A570
A600HD - 2MB Chip / 8MB Fast / 2GB CF HD / Kick 3.1

It says specifically that it needs 1 X 72 pin and it can hold up to 128 MB MAX RAM. Does that mean it is single sided only?

Would this work:http://www.ebay.com/itm/128MB-2X64MB-MEMORY-16X32-72PIN-NON-PARITY-EDO-60NS-5V-RAM-SIMM-/140627893536?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item20be135d20? Does it fit the requirement of 1 x 72 pin?

This auction gives you qty 2 64MB SIMMs for total of 128MB, so no.

Edit: This one may work, but the picture is generic: http://www.ebay.com/itm/128MB-MEMORY-32X32-72PIN-NON-PARITY-FPM-60NS-5V-RAM-SIMM-/130593572400?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1e67fbc630

Just that it has one slot for memory.
