IBM OLD4169 – 256 MB SDRAM DIMM, 168 Pin

Detailed Description:

The IBM OLD4169 memory module is a testament to enduring technology, offering 256MB of SDRAM (Synchronous Dynamic Random-Access Memory) housed in a 168-pin DIMM configuration. This module embodies the legacy of memory technology, providing a bridge for older servers and workstations requiring this specific type of memory. SDRAM technology, which synchronizes the memory speed with the CPU clock speed, allows for quicker access to data compared to its asynchronous predecessors. This 256MB module was engineered to meet the demands of its time, supporting systems that were not yet ready or able to move to more modern memory technology. It offers a cost-effective solution for extending the life and usability of legacy systems that are still serving critical, albeit less resource-intensive, applications.
