It's a SupraRam 2000:

It's a fairly good memory board, provided you're not going to add an
accelerator board. The bumph on the page says it needs 80ns and it is my
understanding that Zorro II memory boards generally require 80ns or faster,
but I see that the one there is populated with a mix of 70ns, 80ns, 100ns
and 120ns so it looks as if you might get away with slower memory if you
can't get hold of the right kind.

By the way, don't look at that site if you don't want to drool over loads of
other interesting bits of Amiga kit :)
