ram upgrade

[tritron]

Well I wonder if anyone knows chip that will be direct replacement and increase amount of ram on pogoplug pro

Ass-u-me-ing, that you found a compatible chip, which I don't have one, and you didn't fry the board, you could override the commandline parameters, but uboot is hard coded to 128 so lord knows how that might behave.

Here is a photo of my PogoPlug Pro. The RAM chip is near the bottom left side. It has a white line all around it with letters on one side the numbers on the top side. It's surface mounted and under it. So I guess you have to put a heat gun on it and unsold-er it and put a new RAM chip that has more RAM on and and used the heat gun to solder it back on.

It be super if the people that made it would just add more RAM. It my cost a little more but be worth it.

Did any one try a hybread had drive on it. Ones that have like Flash ram + the had drive. It my use the Flash ram for it's swop real good.

But Flash ram con only read and wight like a million times so using it as computer RAM I don't think would be good.

I think they only make hard drives with 32GB ram in them now. They don't keep there data that would be good for swop ram any way.

A hybrid drive controls it's flash portion entirely within its own firmware, and the user can not delineate what part is used for what. They don't come with 32GB of ram, but 32MB of ram. Huge difference. And it's not "Flash ram" is Flash memory, usually MLC, which is no way RAM.
