CacheCard help

[Catch22]

Hello,

I have a silicondust cachecard and am about to buy some ram. Whats the largest dimm size I can have in there?

Also, where does the network cable go? Does it just exit the rear of the Tivo somewhere? Its a Thomson unit.

Any help would be great.

Not sure on the max size ram you can have, but for help on the network cable query... http://www.steveconrad.co.uk/tivo/cachecard.html

the newest v2.2 with latest drivers supports up to a 1gb module ...Will Tivo/CacheCard make good use of all available memory?
Can somebody give me a link to a specific module that would suit? My usual suppliers don't seem to list "Tivo" as a PC Motherboard manufacturer :p

Any generic PC133 standard dimm (non-server/non-registered) will work

@ Foxy,

I have a 1GB DIMM and the database that is cached is 513MB so a 512MB DIMM is more than adequate. I say that as a lot of comments in the past suggest that even 64MB makes a huge difference to perfomance against uncached TiVo's
