Adding | system memory to | your | server is an easy way | to make programs | |||
You | can increase | the | amount | of | system memory by installing options calle | ||
memory modules. The server uses a | noninterleaved memory | configuration, with | |||||
error | correcting | code | (ECC) | data | protection. |

Notes:
1.Your server comes with one or more
2. The server supports 100 MHz, 64 MB, 128 MB, and 256 MB DIMMs.
3. Install only registered SDRAM ECC DIMMs.
4.When you are installing memory modules, you might find it more effi install them in adjacent connectors, with no vacant memory connectors i between. For example, if your server only has one DIMM installed in connector J15, install additional memory in the J16 memory connector;
continue with connectors J17 and J22.
5. If you are installing DIMMs of | different sizes, you | might | find it |
install DIMMs with the greater | memory capacity starting | with | connector |
For example, when installing two 256 MB DIMMs, install the | DIMMs | in memor | |
connectors J15 and J16. |

6.After installing or removing a DIMM, you must save the new configurati information using the Configuration/Setup Utility program. See “Using the Configuration/Setup Utility” on page 22.
