Try it, if it doesn't you'll know.

I'll check the A3000 manual for the suitable RAM chips and return later today.

As you have the manual, read the section 4, page 13 to 17.
The 100ns memory will not work in the A3000 (must be 80ns or less). Also you cannot mix DIL chips with ZIP ones. On page 4-17 you'll find the suitable chips you can use. |
