Installing DIMM Modules

Main memory resides on a memory module that plugs into the system board. The memory module contains four banks of DIMM sockets, with each bank containing four sockets, for a total of 16 DIMM sockets. The banks are labeled A, B, C, and D. The sockets are labeled J1 through J16. The following figure shows the module and sockets.
