 |
|
Folks,
I just tested the new memory cards that I purchased from a recommendation based on this list (thanks Jack!). I also found that I had a couple of spare 8MB cards laying around that work too......
GREAT!
I also purchased a generic compact flash and was able to get a spare card for my MX20. The MX20 card was a bit trickier as the Windows2000 OS is loaded as part of the boot record. I needed to make an image for reload to a new card. Don't worry - it's legal to back-up your software for restore on new hardware as long as you don't sell it to someone else.
I now have the ability to archive a backup copy of all of my GX60 and MX20 images. I can carry a spare copy of the current image or a copy of the previous image.
Just wanted to let others know that we don't have to let these vendors beat us up with their rip-off prices.
Ralph

Hi Ralph,
Somehow I missed the referral for the 8mb memory cards. I need one for my
GX60, can you tell me where you got them from ?
Thanks, Paul

The referral was for the 4MB - I found that I had 8MB's laying around and 'got lucky' in that they worked too.
I went back and got the text that Jack Lockamy initially published - Here it is:
************************
Here's the info: The PCMCIA 4MB Linear Data Flash card(s) are manufactured by SMART Modular Technologies (p/n SM9FA2048IP320C). I found the two cards I purchased at www.memorydealers.com. (see http://www.memorydealers.com/4mbcis36serf.html). MemoryDealers's part number is: MEM3600-4FC. These are the same cards used in the Cisco 3620, 3640, 3660, 3661 and 3662 routers. You can find these routers (with the MEM3600-4FC cards installed) on Ebay for as little as $9.99. Just make sure the memory card included with the router(s) uses the same SMT number above. Also, not all PCMCIA cards are alike. The only card type that will work is a PCMCIA 4MB Type 1 Series 2 LINEAR Flash Card. If you use the part numbers shown above you will get the right card... I ordered my cards online from MemoryDealers.com and had them in 2-days via FEDEX!
***********************
This represents the initial 4MB requirement to allow for the larger datafile that Jeppesen now puts out.
Hope this helps,
Ralph

The original referral was on the RV-list - I have already reposted it to this list.
