Q. What RAM memory and hard drive fits my Apple eMac G4?

Apple Macintosh eMac G4 machines took two different types of RAM – PC133 SDRAM and DDR-333 (PC2700 or PC3200 can be used.) In both models, the RAM is accessed through a trap door on the bottom of the machine. If the optional tilt and swivel stand is installed, it must be removed, which requires a hex key.
