FORC5, I spent months searching for ram for the PPro200 dinosaur. I finally found a CA place (Santa Clara) that has lots of "old" ram, and, lots of buffered ECC stuff. Yes, lots of pulls, but is all covered by their "if it does not work, we refund or swap until it does!" I had to rma 2 sets of ram until I got a set that both FIT the dimm slots and was recognized by the mainboard. Price was cheap compared to the big server supply houses. Yes, Crucial still lists the old stuff but has none.... :( IIRC, an ECC dimm/simm will have a small chip in between the 2 banks of ram chips used to buffer reads/writes to the mainboard. Could be wrong, too.
