According to an old Mygate catalogue:

LC630 / Performa 630 / Quadra 630

4 Mb soldered. 1 slot available, accepts a single 4Mb, 8Mb, 16Mb or 32Mb
72 pin SIMM rated at 80ns or faster.

I've never been inside a 630, but if it's anything like my 5200 it's not
a particularly difficult operation. You've just got to be careful about
static, and work out which way round it's supposed to go in!
