The 8kha+ is a 266mhz board. It will run just fine with PC2700 memory, but
there will be no performance gain from using it.

You can mix PC2100 and PC2700 memory, so if you want to get to a gig, just
replace that 128 with a 512. I am running 896 megs on mine, and it's a
mixture of PC2100 and PC2700. No problems at all.

It will take up to 1.5 gigs of memory, so you could get three 512 sticks if
you wanted to.


I hope this is of some help to you.
