Hi - I need to purchase 5 new 256MB sticks of PC2700 and 6 new 256MB sticks of PC100. Can anybody reccomend something that is reliable but also economical? It's for a non profit organization (a Hospice) that is upgrading their computers. I was thinking maybe this for the pc2700: http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=20-141-302&depa=1 and this for the pc100: http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=20-136-009&depa=1
Except that that is PC133 - and I've worked with some pc133 that wouldn't run at lower speeds, so I'm rather worried.
So the PC2700 will be going in new Dell P4 2.6ghz systems, so I don't think we'll have compatibility problems there. But the PC100 will be going in a variety of systems. They range from low end celerons (333mhz I believe) to 700mhz PIIIs. Is there any ram that would work with all of these systems? There's actually 12 systems - each with 1 128MB stick in them - so the plan was to pull the 128MB stick from 6 of those systems and put it in the other 6, and then put the new 256MB sticks in the remaining 6 computers.
Anybody have any advice for us? Thanks!
