Before you install SIMMs, check the following guidelines to
ensure that they will work properly:
q
Use only 36-bit, 72-pin, fast-page mode SIMMs that operate
at an access speed of 70ns (nanoseconds) or faster. Be sure
all the SIMMs operate at the same speed.

Your computer can use any SIMM that complies with
industry standards; however, it is best to use Epson SIMM
option kits to ensure reliability and compatibility.
