1.Default SDRAM configuration is 512 MB. Bank 1 (U15) must be populated first. You can use one or both banks to configure SDRAM combinations of 512 MB, 1 GB, or 2 GB. 1.5-GB configurations are not supported.

2.If both banks are populated, bank 1 and bank 2 must contain the same size DIMM.

3.This memory is neither user configurable nor field replaceable.

4.Flash memory SIMM is not user configurable or field replaceable.

5.ATA Flash disks and Type I and Type II linear Flash memory cards are supported. See the “Flash Memory” section on page 1-29for Flash disk information.
