Hello, I'm posting photos of the various boards I have. I tried to separate them into the categories that seemed most intuitive to me. I grouped together all the boards that had gold fingers on them, others by presence of IC chips, and others simply by size, and so on. Any help would be greatly appreciated, I have hundreds of pounds of boards to sort through, but am too new to identify them all properly.

File comment: I plan to depopulate the aluminum, and remove the wires. Should I depopulate any further than that? There are mini boards attached vertically also. Either way, what grade would these fall under?

File comment: Didn't know if the varying sizes affected these from all being graded as gold finger RAM?

Thank you so much for the help. Do the backplane boards refer to the "backplane expansion boards" on the payout list? I almost feel embarrassed asking that, it seems obvious, but I want to be as accurate as possible, seeing as I am new to the electronic aspect of scrapping, and will be shipping from out of state. Also, in your second paragraph, number 6, does that mean you need a photo of the backside of that particular board to make a proper identification?

Yes backplane/backplane expansion

No need for the other side. I know the board.

So, just to clarify, the second paragraph, number 6, is a backplane board? I think auto correct butchered your grammar there.
