DDR vs SDR Hardware and Software Hardware by GiddyupGilbert I get the feeling DDR is newer and faster. I have a KM2M motherboard that will take 2 sticks of either DDR or SDR; cannot use both at same time. I currently have the 2 slots of SDR filled with 256 and I'm planning on upping that to at least 2 sticks of 512. Any input here greatly appreciated.
