You can increase your computer memory by installing memory modules on the system board.

Your computer supports DDR2 memory.

NOTE: Buffered memory is not supported on this computer.

DDR2 Memory Overview

DDR2 memory modules should be installed in pairs of matched memory size, speed, and technology. If the DDR2 memory modules are not installed in matched pairs, the computer will continue to operate, but with a slight reduction in performance. See the label on the module to determine the module capacity.

NOTE: Always install DDR2 memory modules in the order indicated on the system board.

The recommended memory configurations are:

•A pair of matched memory modules installed in DIMM connectors 1 and 2 (white securing clips)

or

•A pair of matched memory modules installed in DIMM connectors 1 and 2 and another matched pair installed in DIMM connectors 3 and 4 (black securing clips)

NOTICE: Do not install ECC memory modules.

NOTE: If you install DDR2 667-MHz memory, the speed is reduced to 533 MHz.

•If you install mixed pairs of DDR2 400-MHz (PC2-3200) and DDR2 533-MHz (PC2-4300) memory, the modules function at the speed of the slowest module installed.

•Be sure to install a single memory module in DIMM connector 1, the connector closest to the processor, before you install modules in the other connectors.

NOTE: Memory purchased from Dell is covered under your computer warranty.
