50 Replacing and Adding Internal Devices
Memory
Four DIMM sockets on the system board support up to 2.0 Gigabytes (GB) of
PC/100 SDRAM.
Replacing memory
The DRAM DIMMs supported by the system board conform to the following
standards:
64 MB, 128 MB, 256 MB, and 512 MB ECC DIMMs
PC/100-compliant, unbuffered, ECC SDRAM
64 MB minimum system memory
2.0 GB maximum system memory
When you select and install DIMMs, keep the following in mind:
Registered DIMMs should not be combined with unbuffered DIMMs
Memory should be added in order, from DIMM 1 to DIMM 4.
There can be no empty slots between installed DIMMs.
No jumper settings are required for the memory size or type because the
BIOS automatically detects this information.
To replace DIMMs:
1 Turn off the system and disconnect the power cord and all other external
peripheral devices.
2 Open the case. (See Opening the case on page 23 and Preventing static
electricity discharge on page 22.)
3 Pull open the socket clamps on each side of the DIMM socket, then lift
the DIMM out of the socket. Store the DIMM in an anti-static container.
