Enough Flash for SDM?

I've got a 2610XM with 128MB DRAM and 48MB flash. Here's my show flash:

System flash directory:
File Length Name/status
1 29902184 c2600-adventerprisek9-mz.124-16a.bin
2 745 asdffsafdsa [deleted]
3 778 n [deleted]
[29903904 bytes used, 19903452 available, 49807356 total]
49152K bytes of processor board System flash (Read/Write)

Can I just install SDM on my router instead of running it from my PC, which apparently severely limits the SDM features I can use? I think 48 is enough though I've heard that it's sluggish. Will it be OK and how should I use this 2610XM in my CCNA/:S lab I'm building which consists of:

2950 with 2 Gbit ports
2950, 12 total ports
3550 with EMI

2610XM (2 X WIC-1T, 128MB DRAM/48MB flash)
2610XM (1 X WIC-1T, 128MB DRAM/36MB flash)
3640 (1 X WIC-1T, 128MB DRAM/36MB flash)
2520 (2 DB60 serial, 16MB DRAM/16MB flash)
2513 (2 DB60 serial, 16MB DRAM/16MB flash)
2514 (2 DB60 serial, 2 Ethernet)

Btw, weird thing I noticed; Cisco's web site says my 2513 has an Ethernet port (I assume just 10baseT), but it's nowhere to be seen on the router in RJ45 form at least. I do have a 9-ping Token Ring port, which I assume is what Cisco is referring to?

    Yes. Just follow the instructions.

    No. It is exactly the same.

    Amount of Flash doesn't affect the speed of anything. 48MB on a 2600XM will be enough for IOS + SDM or IOS + CME.

    Ethernet doesn't always appear as a RJ45 interface. The 2513 has an AUI port which requires a transceiver.
