Default Compaq memory

Found a brand new memory card in the back of a drawer at work this week.
It's a Compaq 128 reg SDRAM DIM 133 ALL.
Compaq part number 128277-B21.
Box is un-opened, the security seals are still intact.
A quick search on Yahoo shows prices over the £100 for branded memory of this size. I don't want anywhere near that amount
Offers?

Additionally an opened 512 reg SDRAM DIMM 133 ALL
Offers for this also?

*** Note this is probably server memory***** (thanks Sonic)

Is this Server or Worsktation Memory

As they arent compatible, (ie server memeory in a workstatioin, if you make it fit, will blow your motherboard)

That Part number looks more like server memory, IIRC

It will probably be ECC memory, error correcting. It wont blow a workstation motherboard, it just wont work in a motherboard that doesnt support ECC.

Is there another number on the memory? The part number you quoted is the replacement spare part number. All the genuine Compaq memory modules end in -001 . (for example 163612-001)
If you can find the -001 part number I can give you all the information availlable on the product.

It is definatly server memory

More specifically Proliant DL360 and DL380 G1's

The notch is in a different place to workstation memory, and yes it will blow your motherboard, Trust me I am talking from experience
