Symmetric memory board

A memory storage system, comprising:

• a motherboard having first and second like electrical connectors, said first and second electrical connectors having a plurality of electrical connections adapted to receive data signals thereon, said electrical connections being symmetrically disposed;
• a first memory card having a plurality of electrical connections coupled to the first electrical connector on said motherboard in a first orientation, said first memory card adapted to receive the data signals over said first electrical connector and store said data signals in a first preselected pattern;
• and
• a second memory card having a plurality of electrical connections coupled to the second electrical connector on said motherboard in a second orientation, said second memory card receiving a plurality of data signals over said second electrical connector and storing said data signals in a second preselected pattern.

A motherboard, comprising:

• a first plurality of electrical traces adapted to receive data signals thereon;
• a second plurality of electrical traces adapted to receive address signals thereon;
• a first electrical connector coupled to said first and second plurality of traces in a symmetric pattern and being adapted to receive a memory board in a first orientation;
• and
• a second electrical connector coupled to said first and second plurality of traces in the symmetric pattern and being adapted to receive a memory board in a second orientation, said second plurality of traces being coupled to said second electrical connector in reverse order.
