The shipping on one guy's lots is very high but it's still 400 percent

I've been gradually learning about this box.

A question, does having a L2 cache memory setting in the BIOS
selectable L2 cache ECC enabled or disabled indicate this machine can 
take either sort of DIMMs so long as they're all the same type?
Phoenix BIOS 4.0 Release 6.0?         
The default setting is disabled thus suggesting to me existing
DIMM is non-ECC.

It seems to suggest I can go either way to me as long as
the DIMMS are of the same type?

My idea that this was a server class machine is holding up to scrutiny.
An early Pentium III machine it has a 2 wire connector that appears
to allow electing SCUSI, as it's labeled SCUSI amd the power
supply is rated 450 watts from a time when that was not quite so common.

Hope you had a good Christmas.
