I acquired an SE/30 with only 1MB of RAM - four Apple branded 256KB SIMMs in bank A. I purchased four 16MB SIMMs from OWC.
I have a Garrett’s Workshop GW4402B replacement ROM SIMM for 32-bit clean support.
My question is, do I:
The only advantage I saw of option #1 was that I could boot the machine with the stock ROM by using the layout in option #1 - perhaps for troubleshooting down the road?
I wasn’t sure if there was a disadvantage to the 65MB layout by mixing SIMMs of such disparate ages and capacities.

My question is, do I:
- Leave the 1MB in Bank A, install 64MB in Bank B, for a total 65MB?
- Remove the 1MB in bank A, install the 64MB in bank A and leave bank B empty?
