Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage your mainboard, processor,

 

disk drives, add-in boards, and other components. Perform the

 

upgrade instruction procedures described at an ESD workstation only.

 

If such a station is not available, you can provide some ESD

 

protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap and attaching it to a

 

metal part of the system chassis. If a wrist strap is unavailable,

 

establish and maintain contact with the system chassis throughout

 

any procedures requiring ESD protection.

2.2 System Memory

DDR 2

DDR 1

2

The system board is equipped with two 184-pin DDR SDRAM DIMM (Dual In-line Memory Module) sockets that support 2.5V DDR SDRAM DIMM. Double Data Rate SDRAM (DDR SDRAM) is a type of SDRAM that doubles the data rate through reading and writing at both the rising and falling edge of each clock. This effectively doubles the speed of operation therefore doubling the speed of data transfer.

Refer to chapter 1 (System Memory section) for detailed specification of the memory supported by the system board.
