RE: OT: ASA 5510 Memory upgrade

Nadeem,

Thanks, I have done the PIX as well, the 515 needed that low profile pc133
RAM. I just wanted to make sure this was the right fit for the ASA.

As much as I'd love to throw Cisco or one of the many knockoff companies $500
for 512 Megs of RAM, I can't really justify it for a lab ASA. I popped opened
the box (which has WAY TOO many screws) and took a peek at the memory. It's
from STEC and labeled PC2700E CL2. 5-3-3, short of calling STEC directly and
gathering more information, my best guess would be this:

Kingston 512MB 184-Pin DDR SDRAM ECC Unbuffered DDR 333 (PC 2700) Server
Memory Model KVR333X72C25/512 - Retail

Has anyone attempted this upgrade with non-"Cisco" RAM? For $20 I'm going to
give it shot and I'll let you guys know.

Thanks!
