Paul,

I can provide you as much Sparc5 Memory
as you need for your system.

I typically get $5/stick from Memory Brokers.


If you only need a few I'll send them out at
no charge.

Okay, I finally made the plunge and bought a SS5/70 off ebay last week dirt
cheap
(like less than 30 bucks).  Anyways, I don't know if it has RAM or not, it
was just really cheap.
Do I need to make a lot of dramatic changes for upgrading from an SS2
(sun4c) to this machine
(sun4m)?  I'd rather not upgrade the OS with all the mods I've made, plus
it'll be my main webserver (and
I'm hosting other peoples' stuff now also).

Also, how much RAM can you go up to on this machine, and how many slots are
on the board?
And does anyone know where I can get RAM?  I found 32MB on eBay for 25 bucks
each.
Is that reasonable, or can I get them cheaper?  I'd like to go up to 128MB,
256MB or more would
be very desireable (my ThinkPad alone is gonna be upgraded to 544MB this
week).

Paul
