It is made by Adaptec. Here in the US, WYLE is one of the distributors for
them.

You want 80ns or faster - as per the document that went out with the board.
There are lots of different part numbers - it depends on the manufacturer.
For the simplest case ask for 80ns SIMMs that are compatible with clone 386
motherboards - i.e. fast page mode. Note: SIMMs don't have pins, SIPs do.
If you go for SIMMs (if you ever want to remove them latter), then try and
get AMP sockets for them - they are nicer than some of the others and the x9
SIMM configuration goes into them easier.

best regards,
