The 600 and 600E run their memory at PC66 speeds. Some PC100 memory is compatible.

The 600X runs its memory at PC100, but some PC133 parts will slow down and work. As Ray wrote, be sure your parts are low density (16 chips per stick on 256MB parts).

It has been a long time since Crucial sold memory for a 600E or a 600X

They no longer sell memory for the Type 2645, 2646, or the 2642...

Kahlon.com does, but ebay is your likely choice.

The 600E comes in two type numbers, and some (but not all) 600E will utilize more memory than the listed 288 MB with the 32 MB non removable. On others, it is a density issue.

The 600X has three type numbers, but they all have 64 MB non removable, and 576 MB total PC133 low density.

Those modules sell on eBay for $20 to $35 on average... so watch for the sellers that have free shipping.

        I have a 600E and a 600x which both have a pair of 256 MB sticks
        in them.

        Coming on top of the 64 MB soldered in that makes for a total of
        576 MB
        although My Computer Properties reports it as 579 MB and change.

        Per James Maugham's advice to me on this List many years ago
        that's as high
        as you can go.

        As to where you might buy those sticks I'd be inclined to start
        with Crucial

    Kahlon.com is another very good vendor for memory with great prices.
    I'm a happy customer.
