I recal by head (and might be wrong) to have used pc-based memory modules in
a 712/80. There was something with parity (it needs it or it hates it, don't
know).

Try what the bootloader says if you fit it with pc-based memory modules,
that have the same physical lay-out. (edo-ram is a term that comes to mind,
try it or it's predecessor).

I might be totaly wrong here, in those days (a former job) I was using both
SunSparc stations and HP 712 machines.

I don't give any guaranties....

Success
