Gateway 7250R Server User Manual


 
Memory 35
Adding memory
The DRAM DIMMs supported by the server board conform to the following
standards:
128 MB, 256 MB, and 512 MB ECC DIMMs
PC/100-compliant, unbuffered, ECC SDRAM
128 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 add 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 18 and Preventing static
electricity discharge on page 17.)
3 Pull open the socket clamps on each side of the DIMM socket.
4 Insert the new DIMM into the socket, aligning the two notches in the
DIMM with the two notches in the DIMM socket.
