I upgraded my 386SX from 2MB to 4MB ram tonight; off came 8 sticks of 256KB RAM and in went 4 sticks of 1MB.
Strangely enough, 4 of the SIMMs I removed were 32-pin, not 30-pin. They have one extra pin on each side on the connector edge. They seem to work 100% fine in a 30-pin slot, though.
Looking at my SIMM stash, I found 4 more 32-pin 256KB SIMMs.
Does anyone know what these are, if they are OK to be used in 30-pin PC slots, and what the extra 2 pins do?
