Be aware that this recommendation is not complete without the caveat that Cisco will not support your processor card if you stick unapproved third-party RAM in it. It's very important to use QUALITY memory in the box. With that said, Cisco does have an AVL (authorized vendor list) for third-party memory. Kingston carries this, and will even cross-ref the Cisco part numbers for you. /cah
