5-6 Installing Memory

!

CAUTION! Exercise extreme care when installing or removing DIMM modules to prevent any possible damage.

1. Memory support

The P8SCT supports up to 4 GB of dual or single-channel, unbuffered ECC or unbuffered non-ECC DDR2-533 or DDR2-400 SDRAM. Both interleaved and non- interleaved memory are supported, so you may populate any number of DIMM slots. Populating two slots at a time (starting with Bank 1: DIMM1A and DIMM 1B) with the same size and type of memory modules will result in dual-channel(two-way interleaved) operation, which is faster than single channel operation.

2. Installing memory modules

Insert each memory module vertically. Pay attention to the notches along the bottom of the module to prevent inserting it incorrectly. Gently press down on the DIMM module until it snaps into place in the slot (see Figure 5-3).
