I'm upgrading this machine to give to a family member.
It's an 867 MHz. I want to max out the memory. Currently I have
one empty slot and a 128 in one and a 512 in one.

My question - What is the most memory this machine will recognize?
Will it recognize 3/512s and is that the most memory it will take?

Thanks for any info.

Short and to the point - thank you! I guess it's time to order a couple
of 512s. Does this look like the correct product?

Yeah, that'll work. So long as it's PC-133, 168-pin and not 'ECC' you're good.

I ordered them from OWC as recommended RAM for this machine. Nothing in the description says high-density.

Ok. Then they should be low density. OWC is smart like that
