Compaq Proliant 800

I have a Compaq Proliant 800 PPro server. Yes I know it is old but it
is still enough for my needs. It has only 64 MB of memory occupying 2
of the 4 memory slots. The memory is some kind of EDO memory. Two of
the clamps on the memory slots are broken so I may be able to use only
two sticks of memory.

I am hoping that someone in this newsgroup will have the answers to the
following:

What is the exact description of the memory sticks that I can use on
this macnine?

What are the part numbers of larger capacity memory sticks for this
machine so that I can watch for them on e-bay? Any other recommended
source?

What is the largest capacity memory stick I can get for this machine?

What should I resonably expect to pay for working memory.

I would be happy with 256 MB.

Buffered EDO
Max Mem = 1GB
pay as little as possible. I bought my last gig that would work in that box
for $28 shipped.

Don't worry too much about the retaining clips being broken, 168pin
DIMMs aren't known for popping out of their sockets that easily. You
need 2 x 256Mb EDO DIMMs which are cheap and plentiful.

Jason.
