Uh? I'm pretty sure SE/30 can hold up to 128MB RAM (8 16MB 30-pin
SIMMs). Besides, even if it couldn't take 16MB 30-pin SIMMs, the
maximum would be 32MB (8 4MB 30-pin SIMMs) since SE/30's logic board
has no DRAM chip soldered.
And of course, you CANNOT put DIMMs or 72-pin SIMMs into your SE/30.
It can take only 30-pin SIMMs.
