[G4] Which RAM is Apple RAM?

[Anne Keller-Smith]

Hi -

Diskwarrior Support suggests I do Apple Hardware Test, so I have 
trepidatiously opened up my Mac and peered inside yet again. I removed 
my PCI card (Adaptec SCSI card) and see three RAM card slots. They all 
look alike, and I've temporarily misplaced my packing sheet from when I 
bought the computer. Is there a way to see which card is the one that 
came from Apple and which ones CDW added before shipping? I think I 
also bought and added one a year or two ago.

OK, from Apple System Profiler -

Memory Overview:	
     Location	Type	Size
     DIMM0/J21	SDRAM	128 MB
     DIMM1/J22	SDRAM	256 MB
     DIMM2/J23	SDRAM	512 MB

Would the 128MB have come from Apple? The 256 most likely from CDW, and 
the 512 added by me. I'll yank the ones in slots 1 & 2, then, but all 
the slots look alike, as do the cards. Can I tell by what's written on 
the cards. Yes, it be dark in there, but I'll use a flashlite.

I do like the side latch on this G4, it is great!!!

Yes, I'll look online for some diagrams of this Mac's innards, that may 
help. Any suggestions you guys have are gratefully received.

Also, there are a number of G4 towers out there, and when folks ask me 
which I have, I don't know what to say - usually I give them the 
processor speed. Is there a name for mine?
