[comp.sys.laptops] Simms for Packard Bell lpb286?

neal@mnopltd.UUCP (05/16/91)

anyone figured out what works in these beasts?  The manual says 4x256x8, but
doesn't say speed.  The dingbats in California say 4x256x9 and it must be 
exactly 100ns.   I tried 4x256x9 120ns (had them in the drawer)  and they 
failed miserably. 

Also, rumor has it that a Conner CP3044 (40mb) drive will work in this.  
Anyone tried?
