NOTE: -35s ( 35ns) Memory from NEC found to have problems with D3ll systems True fast Pc1066 should be -32ns.. Some manuf want to fudge the issue. The Samsung shipped w/ 8250 is -32ns!
WORD of WARNING!!!! Beware of 32 Bit memory as it is showing cheaper in some cases aka rim4200 or 232 pin memory.!!!! Make sure of the specs for your equipment. The De*ll 8250 takes 184Pin 16 Bit Rambus in sets of 2!!!
Buy.com's 1066 Page $ 98.19 as of 3/19/2005 MANUF= Memory Upgrades.. Better Call on this one & get specs. Thats 512 Mb for under $200 BUT wat is it. Should be fine for Pc800 though!! See end of thread for $ 10.00 off coupon for this vendor!
Specs from a site using -40ns chips for pc1066 If it were cheap enough.. I would say why not, but @ about 2% off other -32ns ram (& the difference is made up in shipping)..NOT! <<184-pin RIMM module NON-ECC Rambus PC1066 standard certified Peak bandwidth of 4.2GB/second (Dual-channel) 256/288Mbit Micro-BGA RDRAM devices Serial Presence Detect (SPD) support Tested and Certified PC1066 RDRAM Uses 40ns chips overclocked to 32ns PCB height: 1.375" (34.93mm) Lifetime Warranty, 30 days money back > 1800 4 m4mory= http://www.18004memory.com/category.asp?catid=8 do not link

Only that it is a Yahoo site vendor. BTW $3.00 more for Samsung lifetime is correct! However my experiance with memory is if it works for a week......
A year from now we will be looking for RAM Jet memory ( Ha Ha ) The big question is will Rambus be cheap or even available.... Hopefully the volume that Dell did will help that issue.

Lifetime warranty doesn't mean much to me. I had a NIC from "CNet". That's right. It locked up my PC and corrupted the OS. Got a replacement and same problem. Ended up eating the loss.

Well if you have a problem with your ram, you will notice it in the first year. I never heard of ram just dieing (unless you do something that probably voids the warrenty anyhow) like a monitor or hard drive does. Besides, you probably will have a new computer in a few years anyhow that most likely will have diffrent ram.
Btw, the review of digi4you... http://www.resellerratings.com/seller3378.html

Will the Samsung 184 pin 1066 Rambus (256MB) work with the Dell 8250's? It is $96.

That was the $3 difference mentioned above!
My unit has Samsung from Dell. I thought they all did?
as far as what is compatible in size's Look on page 100 in manual Instructions on Page 87 on how to install.
Remember to GROUND YOURSELF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This stuff is costly.

Can somebody please confirm the Syncmax/Concord RDRAM from Digi4me.com for $91 indeed are PC1066? Searching through the manufacturer's site, all I see are PC800.

This link on Vendors website says 1066 Many times manuf websites are old & need to be updated.
Check with Vendor to confirm on phone if uncomfortable.
I am waiting for $85.00 Who knows why
I put it in my cart & this is what shows up for invoice: (cut & Paste) 1 256MB RDRAM Rambus PC1066-32ns Non-ECC 184 Pin RIMM Memory. **1 YEAR Warranty** 88.00 3/4/03
for anyone interested only in "dell branded" memory for your 8250, their small business center has 25% memory right now. still more expensive than the samsung mentioned previously, but just so you guys know...
