However, if the RAM expansion decodes the [[Standard_Memory_Expansions#Extended_1M-4M_Expansions_.28RAM7.2FYarek-style.29|A8 address line]], you can access the internal second RAM bank of the 6128 from another range (&7Exx). The [[X-MEM]] and [[CPC_iRAM#CPC_iRAM.2F640|iRAM/640]] expansions implement this and therefore can provide 640K of total RAM.

== 4MB RAM expansions ==
 
Beware about 4MB RAM expansions. The upper 2MB (Port 7Bxxh, 7Axxh, 79xxh, 78xxh) of a 4MB expansion can conflict with other hardware as setting A10 to 0 is also used for many hardware expansions.
 
The practical safe maximum on Amstrad CPC with [[Standard Memory Expansions]] is 2MB.
