Dell 200, 6100 manual Sample Simm Configurations

When installing SIMMs, follow these guidelines:

•Install the SIMM with the pin 1 end aligned with the pin 1 end of the socket (see Figure 8-5).

•Install a SIMM in socket J1 before socket J2, socket J2 before socket J3, and so on.

•All SIMMs in one bank must be the same size and speed, but SIMMs in bank 1 may differ in size from those in bank 2.

•SIMMs must be installed in groups of four, eight, or 16 only.

The following SIMM interleaving is supported:

•Two-way interleaved using J1 to J4

•Four-way interleaved, single bank using J1 to J8

•Four-way interleaved, dual bank using J1 to J16

Table 8-1 illustrates the possible memory configurations based on these guidelines.
