AlphaStation 200? AFAIK it uses generic PS/2 SIMMs with parity. I
didn't worry about the RAM type when a friend gave me 4 x 16MB PS/2
SIMMs. I puted the modules in the machine and it worked. I also tried 4
x 16MB from a DataGeneral AViiON 5500. But that SIMMs where detected as
4MB types. I think the Alpha was confused, because the DG SIMMs are 40
Bit ECC.
