[Aurora-sparc-user] Ultra 10 RAM upgrade

[Dave Barton]

Hi,

I've been using Aurora for a while (1.92) on my Sun Ultra 10 (333MHz USIIi with 128MB RAM I think!) and used it successfully as a DNS server, email server, webserver, MySQL server, router and OpenVPN server for my home network. I screwed up a kernel upgrade and smoked my installation (which sucked!) and I'm going to reinstall on 2.98.

I'm after some advice about sorting out a RAM upgrade for the box. I think the part number I need is 370-3799-01 but I'd be happy if someone could confirm this for me. I think I should be able to put 4x256MB RAM modules in the Ultra 10 for a total of 1GB, is that right? I've upgraded the disk with a spare 40GB Seagate I had lying around and that has been working fine for 12 months or so.

Finally, can anyone recommend a good store (online or bricks'n'mortar) where I might be able to pick up four RAM modules for a decent price? I've seen a couple on US Ebay but shipping seems quite expensive and most people won't take PayPal from overseas buyers.

Any advice and pointers would be gratefully received
