2-4 Installing DIMMs
CAUTION
Exercise extreme care when installing or removing DIMM
modules to prevent any possible damage.
DIMM Installation (See Figure 2-2)
1.Insert DIMMs as required for the desired system memory. Note that the PIIIDM6/PIIIDM4/PIIIDM3/PIIIDME interleaves memory for increased performance, which requires you to install two modules at a time.
2.Insert each DIMM module vertically into its slot. Pay attention to the two notches along the bottom of the module to prevent inserting the DIMM module incorrectly.
3.Gently press down on the DIMM module until it snaps into place in the slot. As stated in 1 above, you must populate either two or four banks of memory.
Support
The PIIIDM6/PIIIDM4/PIIIDM3/PIIIDME supports registered DIMMs and ECC type memory. PC133 and PC100 memory are both supported but will result in the same perfomance, as the memory bus runs at 100 MHz.
