[rescue] Looking for Sunblade 2500 CPU and RAM

[William Barnett-Lewis]

Reading about Bill's Mac has me in the mood to fix up my 2500 Silver. Given
my minimal budget, I thought I'd ask here first.

I'm looking for a 1.6 GHz UltraSPARC IIIi 527-1216 CPU and heatsink. Also I
am looking for more RAM.

The RAM is 512mb/1gb/2gb 266 or 333mhz DDR-1 SDRAM in pairs.

Last, does anyone know of a wireless solution for this machine?

Thanks!

Hi

On the CPU where I did not have one I have used the 1.5GHZ CPU, not perfect,
but usable without issue. I have some heatsink/fans if you need it.

I also have a load of RAM as I suspect many do.

For wireless, use an Ethernet adapter such as Buffalo supplied?

There are a multitude of small adapters that connect any RJ-45 equipped device
to a wireless network, typically going under names such as 'gaming adapter'
used to put gaming consoles on wireless networks.

In Amateur Radio, a lot of people have had great success with this small
device from TP-Link TL-WR802N (http://amzn.to/2pT8s5l ) that is available for
about $35 last I checked.

Back in the day, I used to use a netgear wireless print server that had 4x
RJ-45 jacks in my basement to connect sundry Sun, SGI, and other computers
from my 'bench'.
