i recently purchased an SS5/70, and had read in an FAQ that
the machine accepts either 8meg or 32meg SIMMs.

much to my chagrin, i find that it does not take standard
72-pin SIMMs at all (too bad, because i have several of these).

can someone tell me what type of SIMM these machines take, and
where is a good (inexpensive) place to get 2 32meg SIMMs that
will work in a sparcstation5?

also, i have purchased a second internal SCA disk for the SS5 --
can someone tell me where i can get another of the drive sleds for
internal mounting of the device?

and are there any heat problems with running 2 internal disks?

many thanks for any helpful advice or price quotes!

regards,
sinclair
