RDRAM (Rambus dynamic random access memory) and SDRAM (synchronous dynamic random access memory) are two different types of memory technology. RDRAM is newer and in some cases faster, but SDRAM is less expensive.

The most important thing to know is that you cannot use RDRAM in a system designed for SDRAM or vice versa. The two types of modules are different sizes and shapes, so they won't even fit into the same memory slots. You should buy whichever memory type was designed for your system.
