Net Dimm RAM upgrade - jumper change required?

Guys
I haven't seen anything definitive on this. If I upgrade my 256mb Net Dimm to 512mb, do I need to change any jumper settings or will the increased RAM be recognized without any changes?
Thanks,
Jim

It was just plug and play for me too

What are the benefits in upgrading the ram? I know some other systems games required it but I didn't think any of those were on the Naomi?
So basically my question is...Are there any Naomi games that need 512mb.

I think it's just Melty Blood Actress Again that needs the 512mb.

I am guessing that is for CF or Net booting, so I don't think I will need to worry about that. That cart only cost $120 so I will be getting it that way.

Yes, since we're talking about increasing the ram in the
Net Dimm.

I was just thinking of GD roms at first.
So the CF card would still need 512mb?
So no GD roms need 512mb of ram?
I am the wired one who uses a Net Dimm and GD rom drive. I never have had the jumpers switched and don't intend to. Might get a CF for my mom's house but only of what I own carts and GD roms of.
I find that with multi carts and mame I get board to easy and do really enjoy the games as I should.

I was wondering about this too. I have 2 different 256mb dimms, both the same specs (pc133, 256mb, CL3), and each one will work fine alone, but together, the board gives me a error 32 (not enough ram). I'm running 4.01 on my netdimm. Does 512 only work with 3.17? Does it not like mixing and matching different DIMMs?
