[comp.sys.sun] Third party memory for SUN 4/330

schultz@mmm.serc.mmm.com (John C Schultz) (06/14/89)

I am looking for third party add-on memory for a SUN 4/330.  The problem
is that add-on memory for the 4/3XX family is on separate cards (not just
the SIPP packages).  SUN sells only the populated memory boards at a
rather high price.  A SUN add-on board with 16MB costs $10,500 or about
$650/MB, distributing the cost of the board across the 16 MB of DRAM.

I can buy SIPP lifetime warranty Sun 4 memory for under $300/MB. $5500 for
a 3U memory card seems a bit high.

Any vendors? Please?--
