Thank you very much Jonathan!
I'll check them.
I have another two SIMMS.
Unfortunately I do not know how to make my computer to crash. And I'm
afraid of making it fail because, as I already stated, my file systems get
corrupted. When it happens, I have had to reinstall FreeBSD again.
Perhaps I can make a program that allocates a lot of memory and I'll try
to make several read/write access to it...
Thank you!
