One works both in parity and ECC mode and the other only in ECC mode. I first bought EDO parity RAM from Micron that only worked in ECC mode (Have to write all 4 parity bits at once). I then found EDO parity RAM from Samsung that works in regular parity mode. The type I buy is 32MB 60 ns, 72 pin, gold leads, p/n KMM5368105BKG-6 they are sort of expensive though at $280. Jonas
