[rescue] Sun 3U Expansion Memory Questions

The only number I see is on an orange barcode and reads SNME330-00056.
There's a logo I don't recognize on the board, looks like a C with a
fireball coming out of the hollow part. I'll try and get some pictures if
that doesn't ring any bells. Could be a third party board, I haven't found
any information on an actual Sun board built like this one.

Thanks,
Jonathan
