3.2 Memory Installation
This section details the procedure for installing system memory on the
NuPRO-850. Correct memory configuration is critical for proper system
operation.
3.2.1 Memory Configuration Options
The NuPRO-850 has flexible memory configuration options. These include
support for 64MB, 128MB, 256MB, 512MB, 1GB Modules. Note that the
modules must all be the of the same type and density and must be installed in
pairs (DIMM1 and SIMM2 or DIMM3 and DIMM4) for dual-channel mode
operation.

3.2.2 Installing Memory Modules
Installing DIMM modules is simple. The modules insert in the sockets and are
held in place by the socket retaining arms. The edge connectors on the
modules are of different widths and there are key notches in each module.
These ensure that you do not insert a module incorrectly.
Before installing any modules, a configuration should be chosen. The required
number and type of DDR modules should then be prepared.
