Memory
Standard
512-MB, 1024-MB, 2048-MB, or 4096-MB 667-MHz DDR2 SDRAM; two
SODIMM slots supporting dual channel memory
Maximum
Upgradeable to 4096-MB with 2048-MB SODIMM in slots 1 and 2
Dual-channel
Maximized dual-channel performance requires SODIMMs of the same
size and speed in both memory slots.
NOTE:
Due to the non-industry standard nature of some third-party memory modules, we
recommend HP branded memory to ensure compatibility. If you mix memory speeds, the system
will perform at the lower memory speed. Above 3-GB, all memory may not be available due to
system resource requirements.

* The term "10/100/1000" or "Gigabit" Ethernet indicates compliance with IEEE standard 802.3ab
for Gigabit Ethernet, and does not connote actual operating speed of 1 Gb/s. For high-speed
transmission, connection to a Gigabit Ethernet server and network infrastructure is required.
** Designed for downloads from 56K modem compliant sources. Maximum achievable download
transmission rates currently do not reach 56 KB/s, and will vary with line conditions. Modem
