Memory Installation Guidelines

  • The 3 DIMM sockets can accommodate from 32 to 384 MB of RAM.
  • Supported DIMM sizes are 32-, 64-, and 128-MB for non-ECC, and 64- and 128-MB for ECC. (ECC DIMMs have 9 memory chips on one or both sides; non-ECC DIMMs have a maximum of 8 chips per side.)
  • Do not mix ECC and non-ECC DIMMs in a system. If any sockets contain non-ECC DIMMs, ECC capability is disabled.
  • You can mix DIMM sizes and install them in any order in the memory banks, leaving a bank unoccupied if necessary. It is recommended that you fill the sockets in order starting with Bank 0, but it is not a requirement.
