1.10.2 Supplementary information about DIMMs

Your PCA-6175 can accept four kinds of memory chips: EDO (with or without parity), and SDRAM (with or without parity). Also:

SDRAM chips are usually thinner and have higher pin density than EDO chips.

The BIOS displays EDO and SDRAM memory on the boot-up screen.

Chips with 9 chips/side support parity; chips with 8 chips/side do not support parity.

Single-sided modules are typically 16 or 64 MB; double-sided modules are usually 8, 32 or 128 MB.

Note: The PCA-6175 accepts EDOs both with and without parity, but this is not recommended.
