Here's what I found out for you. The DDR3 has 240 pins just like the DDR2, however, they will not be compatible, you will not be able to put a DDR3 into a DDR2 slot. The knotch on the stick of RAM is in a different location so it will not fit. So a new motherboard made for DDR3 will have to be used. They are currently out on the MAC Lite computers but not sure if Microsoft has any on the market yet. The DDR3 will use 1.5V, which is lower than the DDR2 1.8V.

RAM with 240 pins typically refers to DDR2 and DDR3 SDRAM DIMMs (Dual In-Line Memory Modules). These types of memory modules are commonly used in desktop computers and are characterized by their 240-pin configuration. DDR2 and DDR3 differ in speed and performance, with DDR3 offering higher bandwidth and efficiency compared to DDR2.
