Title: WTF 32MB 72 pin SIMM EDO 60NS Memory
Post by: SteveJ34 on February 19, 2008, 04:27:04 pm
I found a Brother HL 1440 15PPM monochrome laser with plenty of life left in its drum.

I would like to max its memory and need a single stick of 32MB 72 pin SIMMs to do it.

Found a bunch of 16mb sticks in my junk pile, anyone have a 32MB stick?

(This is Pentium I era memory and some last generation 486s).

Unfortunately I dumped most of that stuff a while ago but let me see if I can find any at work. It may take me a day or two but I'll let you know.

And it used to cost a fortune!  I remember 16 or 32 megs costing $100+.  I'll dig too in case Encryptor can't find any.

Well if there's any left over after SteveJ34 is done. Hopefully I can get in on the action (if that's ok). I have an old p1 that i'm trying to put some games in but with only 16mb it's a no go.

You can have one or more of my 16mb modules but with likely (4) slots that would only get you to 64mb. Most old boards that use these will have a 128k limit.

I had 2k loaded on the old box that these came out of quietly running an FTP server till I finally decommissioned it about 24 months back.

Not sure what games you are trying to get up and running....

I have a ton of 72 PIN EDO memory just sitting here from an old Proliant 5500 server.  Let me pull the memory and figure out the sizes.  Was just going to recycle them, but if there's a need, I can send them out this week only.  We're moving and need to either get rid of them, or recycle them.

More to follow
Ed

Edit: Spoke too soon.  Just pulled them and they are 84 pin, not 72 pin.

Thanks to all that went to bat in an attempt to locate some of this older technology memory.

A fellow member, Sammie, has located some and it should arrive this week after which I will complete the rescue of a Brother 1440 printer and put it back into service after its "rescue" from the side of the road.

I trust this show of thanks and concurrent 'bump' might enable someone to make use of any additional memory of this type that may be sitting out there in need of a home.

Glad you found some. Turns out my old pc takes pc66 memory. 16mb non removable and I can only top it up to 32mb.

I believe I still have a couple of ASUS P3V4X motherboards with slot 1 P667 CPUs equipped with 256k mem, AGP 2x VGA, and PCI linksys netcards.

These are from some older office workstations that were upgraded or taken out of service many moons ago that the pack rat in me chose not to toss into the trash bin.

If you are trying to support some low or no cost setup you are welcome to one of these for the cost of shipping if you are interested.

Depending on where you are, I'm sure USPS Parcel Post or similar shipping would be < $10.
