DRAM, Flash Memory, and Failover
In a failover configuration, the two units must have the same amount of DRAM. You do not have to have 
the same amount of flash memory. For more information, see the failover chapters in Cisco ASA 5500 
Series Configuration Guide using the CLI
.
Note
If you use two units with different flash memory sizes, make sure that the unit with the smaller flash memory 
has enough space for the software images and configuration files.
