[Sunhelp] Adding Memory

[Nabeel Ahmed]

Hi,
I managed to install the extra memory without much of a hassle. Thanks to
all.
But, inside the Sparc box there were 5modules adding up to 128MB,
surprising.
And another question I have now is how do I go about identifying these
modules and which platforms could I use them on. I remeber seeing some site
sometime back about the details of all the memory stuff, that site also
informed about which modules are compatible with what particular Sun boxes
Any help?
Regards,
Nabeel
