If you have a DN3000 or DN3000 model 3010, your machine will have
four slots for memory cards. The cards can contain either 1MB or
2MB each. If your machine currently has 2 cards of 2MB each, then
you should have 2 unused slots in which you can add another 4MB
of memory with no problems. If your machine is a DN3010A (note
the 'A'!), then it has a single memory slot which hold either a
4MB card or an 8MB card. I believe these are the same memory cards
that are used in the DN3500/4500. If you have a DN3010A, then you
must removed the 4MB card in order to install a new 8MB card since
there is only a single slot on the motherboard. To order memory for
a DN3000 or DN3010, order the A-ADD-2MB option from the Apollo Direct
Catalog (page 4). To order memory for the DN3010A, DN3500, or DN4000
order the A-ADD-4MB-A or A-ADD-8MB-A options (single 4MB or 8MB card).
Memories for  the DN4500 must be installed in pairs of two boards.
To order memory for the DN4500 order A-ADD-8MB-B or A-ADD-16MB-B
(a pair of 4MB cards or a pair of 8MB cards). Note that the DN3550
is basically a slow version of the DN4500 (not a fast version of the
DN3500) and it requires that its memories be installed in pairs like
the DN4500.
