simm i guess
The DDR400 memory modules for computers were first available on the public market in 2002. It was the largest volume of memory available in one place at the time is was released.
DIMM (Dual In-line Memory Module) technology was first introduced in the early 1990s, with the first DIMMs appearing around 1994. DIMMs replaced SIMMs (Single In-line Memory Modules) and allowed for a more efficient and higher-capacity memory configuration in computers. These modules became the standard for desktop and server memory in subsequent years.
The First Word in Memory Is Me was created in 1985.

The first Dual Inline Memory Module (DIMM) was introduced in 1996. DIMMs replaced the older single inline memory modules (SIMMs) and allowed for a more efficient way to increase memory capacity and speed in computers. They became widely used in desktop and server systems due to their improved performance and design.
Most modern processors are 64 bit, so they're capable of addressing ridiculously large amounts of memory if the OS is also 64-bit ... the practical limits are really "what sizes of memory modules are commercially available", "how many memory modules will physically fit into the computer", and "how much can you afford". Theoretically with 64 bits it's possible to address up to 16 exabytes of memory. This would be over a billion 16 GB DIMM modules. So you don't need to worry about hitting the limit any time soon. If the OS is only 32 bit ... for desktop machines, Windows XP was the first version of Windows for which 64 bit was really an option, and Vista was the first version where it was at all common ... then the maximum memory size is just 4 GB (and in practice the actual usable memory will probably be less, because the upper part of the memory address space is usually used for other purposes).
Most motherboards today come with between 2 and 8 sockets for the insertion of memory. These are usually either SIMMs (single inline memory modules) or DIMMs (dual inline memory modules). These can come in different sizes. The motherboard usually labels these sockets "SIMM0" through "SIMM7" or "DIMM1" through "DIMM3", etc. The sockets are almost always filled starting with the lowest numbered socket first. Most Pentium class or higher motherboards require SIMMs to be inserted in pairs, but DIMMs may be inserted individually.
Command modules did not land on the moon. The Lunar Exploration Modules (LEM) did.

Memory is stressed on the first syllable: "MEM-ory."
Depends on the notebook motherboard..I just upgraded my note book from 512MB RAM (2X256 PC2100 DDR-266Mhz 200 pin SODIMM) to 1GB (2X512MB PC2700 DDR-333Mhz 200 pin SODIMM), would not accept 1GB modules. I tried the Brand supplier (HP) and they were going to charge me a fortune for the PC2100 modules, so I got my local computer shop to get generic memory for me from their suppliers. When I tried the first memory modules of 512MB my notebook did not boot, so tried another brand (generic as well) and you little beauty it loaded. Therefore, different brands of memory modules may not work, mainly due to the voltage of the chip. So I saved big bucks by going local. My advice, seach the internet for your model and product ID and the type of RAM used. Hope this helps Kevin from Australia
