Memory Modules

The main memory for the HP Tower Server tc2110 is implemented using three memory slots on the system board and it supports up to 1.5 GB (512 MB x 3) of memory. The Server only supports HP 168-pin, PC 133 (133 MHz), 3.3V, unbuffered, ECC SDRAM DIMMs and ships with at least one 128 MB DIMM installed.

NOTE

Use only memory modules provided for your HP Server model. The use of other memory

 

modules is not supported. Install only 128 MB, 256 MB, or 512 MB unbuffered ECC

 

SDRAM modules.

 

 

To ensure you have the correct DIMMs before installation, refer to one of the following for a list of qualified DIMMs:
