:>Briefly, what are the differences between the 3B2/300 and the 3B2/310?

:  The primary difference is the speed of the system board.  The model 300
:system runs around 8 MHz, and the model 310 runs around 10 MHz (I keep
:forgetting the exact numbers - it might even be 8 and 12 MHz).  There might
:be other, incidental, differences such as hard disk size and basic serial
:ports configuration.

The 3B2/300 has a Western Electric WE32000 chip and no capability for
installing a Math Accelerator Unit (MAU).  The 3B2/310 uses the faster
WE32100 chip and does have the capability of installing a MAU.  I have
no idea whether the speeds cited above are correct.  Installed disks,
memory, and ports are usually available in several configurations
(package A, package B, etc).
