technologies for x8 and x16 devices. They also support dual channel
DDR2 memory technology up to 10.7GB/s. There must be at least
one memory bank populated to ensure normal operation. Use the
following the recommendations for installing memory. (See Figure 1
on page 10 for the location of the memory slots on the card)
One DIMM: Install into slot 0. You can install the DIMM into
