Hi Ken,
StarMax computers have three slots for memory modules(or DIMMs).
The computer will work with a minimum of 16Mb to a maximum of 160MB.
Slots can accept 16,32,and 64 MB DIMMS
DIMMS must be 168-pin,3.3V unbuffered Extended Data Out (EDO),
60 nanosecond RAM access time or faster.
The slot marked "single bank" can accept a 16MB, 32MB, single bank DIMM, as
installed at the factory.
Single banked DIMMs often appear to be double banked, when they are really
single banked.
This slot accepts a "dual bank" DIMM, but will not recognize half of it.
The remaining 2 DIMM slots, marked "dual bank", can accept single or dual bank
of size 16MB, 32MB, or 64MB (NOTE: 64MB DIMMs must use11-bit row address,2 KB
refresh).--see Motorola technical info-page 12.
NOTE: The word �BANK� here refers to the RAM stick itself and not to the SLOTS
on the board; i.e., as in, �2 banks of 2 SIMMs or DIMMs� . There a �Bank�
refers to pairs of slots in a particular configurations.
