My 3 year old Dell 8200 is in a desparate need for more RAM.
Currently I have 256 MB of Samsung RDRAM. There are two 128 MB
MR16R-0828BN1-CK8 PC-800 nonECC 45ns chips in one block. The
remaining 2 RIMM slots are empty. I want to add 256 MB memory to
attain 512 MB RDRAM. Yesterday I found the same chips on ebay and
they sold for about $90, which is outragous for used RAM chips. What
kind of RDRAM can I use?

You have no choice. The ONLY memory that will work in the 8200-8250 is
Rambus.
Best deal I have seen on new was at http://snipurl.com/c54g
I picked up 1 Gb for my 8200 before it really started going up in price.

You don't have a choice in the matter.........the 8200/8250 series use
Rambus.

You're right, it's outrageously expensive and obsolete technology.

Since no one else mentioned it, whatever you buy, buy two. RDRAM goes in
matched pairs.
