Hello everybody 😀

APPLE.jpg

I have this old piece of APPLE hardware and I would like to know if this is a L2 cache module or a ROM module for old power mac.
Do you know which models are compatible with this module ?

Thanks for your help 😀

is there a chip labeled A5 on the other side?
from the numbers it looks like a rom module, possibly 4megabyte worth (only 3.5 visible in photo
