The Old Mac Pro...
I keep her running.
The RAM is a mis-mash.
She originally came with 4x512mb DDR2 FB-DIMM PC2-6400 RAM sticks.
Last week I noticed an LED was showing a failure on one of the sticks.
One of the original 512s, but only a partial fail since it was still reporting to the OS as present.
I had 2x 512mb, 1x 1gb, 2x 2gb, and 2x 4gb for a total of 15gb installed.
Amazon had a 2x4gb kit for a mere $30.
It arrived today.
I yanked the 2 512mb sticks and installed the 2x4gb.
The "About This Mac" now says I have 30 total installed gigabytes.
Seems someone screwed up and actually shipped me 2x8gb!
I'll take it.
