I have several Apple memory modules, and I was looking them up to find detailed information about them.

Using this search criteria for this part, I wasn't able to find much:

"333-0178" "Apple" -amazon

I also tried -phone in place of the amazon exclusion, but that reduced the results down to a few. I don't believe there is nothing on the internet about that part number. The most relevant result I found was this one (modern browser needed).

But I was really looking for primary sources by Apple, or at least, quoted or mirrored documentation/lists from trusted secondary sources. I don't like taking random websites' words for truth.

It would be nice to have a complete table of what parts work in which Macs.

Also, I've seen parts that are called different things. For example:

341-0741

This post here says it's ROM. This page (modern browser needed) says it's cache. This post here doesn't say what it is, but says it's compatible with PM 6/7/8100.

It's insanity.

This link from Tinkerdifferent lists all the cache modules for PowerMac machines including pictures of the modules and descriptions of the various chip used in them. (I imagine that link requires a newer browser.)

Thanks wove. I knew I saw a page like that before. I don't know why I have such a hard time finding what I want. It's bookmarked now. It's like google knows exactly what I'm looking for, but shows me EVERYTHING else. Even typing in quoted search terms doesn't help, There have been a handful of situations in which I was trying to find a page I had accessed before, so I type in quoted text that I KNOW is on the page, so it should pop up with the exact page, but it shows me everything except the one I'm looking for.

Back during the old web, I never had trouble finding what I wanted based on my search terms. But after the web started changing and becoming more dynamic and less usable, is when I started noticing the difficulty in finding what I want increased.

I think nowadays, they just push what is trending. The majority of the results are for just a few sites, like Facepalm, amazon, ebay, the worthless classified websites that have a list of text just to get their page noticed, but has no relevant info on the page, etc.

Even putting in exclusions like -amazon don't help. I feel like the modern web is useless.
