Removing and installing memory modules

The four DIMM sockets onboard support 1024-MBregistered SDRAM DIMMs for a maximum memory capacity of 4 GB.

Note: The registered SDRAM module should work under 3.3 volts; 5-volt memory devices are not supported.

For data integrity, the default setting of the ECC (error correcting code) function of the memory system in BIOS is enabled. Refer to “IPMI Configuration” on page 107 for more information on this BIOS parameter.

Note: The system board supports both 100 and 133 MHz registered SDRAMs; 66 MHz SDRAMs are not supported.
