I didn't understand where this RAM expansion in the following link has to be connected on X68000 XVI Compact:

You can find an internal connector at the bottom of your Compact XVI.

The connector is designed to accept either the 6MB board that Sharp made (I THINK it also had an FPU on it, but it's been a while since I've even seen a picture of it), or an XSIMMVIc, which is just an XSIMMVI modified for use in the Compact.

Both of these boards are incredibly rare and cost hilarious amounts of money for how simple they are.

Are these RAM expansions compatible for the XVI Compact?:
