Can I Expand the Memory on the PCI/PXI-7030/6xxx RT Series DAQ Device?

Hardware: Multifunction DAQ (MIO)>>Real-Time>>PCI-7030/6030E, Multifunction DAQ (MIO)>>Real-Time>>PCI-7030/6040E, Multifunction DAQ (MIO)>>Real-Time>>PXI-7030/6040E, Multifunction DAQ (MIO)>>Real-Time>>PXI-7030/6030E, Multifunction DAQ (MIO)>>Real-Time>>PXI-7041/6040E, Multifunction DAQ (MIO)>>Real-Time>>PCI-7030/6533, Multifunction DAQ (MIO)>>Real-Time>>PXI-7030/6533, Multifunction DAQ (MIO)>>Real-Time>>PCI-7041/6040E

Problem: The PCI/PXI-7030/6xxx RTSeries DAQ device has 8 MB DRAM, but I would like to add more memory to the device. How much more can I add?

Solution: The PCI/PXI-7030 device specifications are only for 8 MB of user-programmable DRAM. However, it is likely that the memory can be expanded even further; you would need to give it a try to know for sure. This device is now end of life, and memory expansion on the 7030 is not supported by National Instruments.

The PCI-7041/6040 device is available for purchase. The PCI-7041 comes with 32 MB of onboard DRAM and 32 MB of onboard CompactFlash. The device specifications for the 7041 allow for memory expansion up to 128MB.
