> Hey all,

> I've decided it's time to upgrade memory on both my mac and my
> FreeBSD server. I really want nice RAM because of past experiences [1]
> so any general advice is appreciated in addition to specific answers:
>
> * My G4 450MHz crashes occasionally (frequently under heavy load)
> and I am
> suspecting it's the RAM (I bought the machine used, and I am writing my
> own software, so really it could be anything, but I want to rule
> out RAM).
> Is Apple the best vendor?
>
> * My FreeBSD server has a paltry 256. It's vanilla ram, but it
> works great
> so in this case I'd like to augment rather than replace it. The MoBo
> manual says I need PC1600 or PC2100 DDR SDRAM. Can I buy registered ECC
> RAM and expect it to play nice with the MoBo and existing RAM or
> do I need
> to replace? Will the mobo even work with ECC if it doesn't say
> so? I can't
> remember the speed of my existing RAM, is that an issue?
