Atari 2mb RAM upgrade...

[Al Hartman]

There is an eBay vendor ( www.st-freakz.co.uk ) who has a 2mb RAM upgrade for the Atari ST for 35 pounds shipped (about $55.00 US).

I've given up on getting my AERCO upgrade working, and buying 16 1mb x 1 chips would cost more than this upgrade anyway.

He sent me this picture:



Anyone have any experience with this upgrade before I order one?

I've got 18 Siemens HYB511000A-70 DRAM chips if you're interested. Theyve been sitting idle in a static tube for over 20 years.

Al,
Did you ever get this upgrade for your ST?
If so, how did it work out?

I did not. I ended up repairing my AERCO EASIE-ST upgrade which brought my system to 1mb. t can go to 2.5 mb if I can figure out what traces to cut/jumper to do it.
