Some of the Early boards had slots for DDR and slots for SDR. Anymore, the DDR boards will only use DDR memory. An Asus A7A266 can use DDR or SDR. I know there are a few other older boards that can use wither kind too.

However, on those boards, both kinds could NOT be used at the same time. Either SDR or DDR, not both.

I knew I forgot something. I have heard of people trying both at the same time, not a pretty sight. :D
