Expansion Memory Boards - Yamaha SY99 Owner's Manual

Users who enjoy capitalizing on the SY99's ability
to load in sample data will be happy to know that
the SY99 features five expansion slots which allow
the size of the MDR/sample RAM area to be
expanded to a maximum of 3 Mbytes (1.5 Mwords)
using optional expansion memory boards (Model
SYEMB05).
Each expansion memory board adds 512 kbytes
to the amount of MDR/sample memory available,
and is designed to be easily installed by the user.
Please note the fact that these boards can only
be used as sample memory. The amount of memory
that can be allocated for use by the MIDI data
recorder is limited to 512 Kbytes, and cannot be
expanded using expansion boards. The following
chart shows the minimum and maximum amounts of
sample memory that each board makes available:
