1.9.2 Installing DIMMs
The procedure for installing DIMMs appears below. Please follow
these steps carefully. The number of pins are different on either side of
the breaks, so the module can only fit in one way. DRAM SIMM
modules have the same pin contact on both sides. SDRAM DIMM
modules have different pin contacts on each side, and therefore have a
higher pin density.
1. Make sure the two handles of the DIMM socket are in the "open"
position. i.e. The handles remain leaning outward.
2. Slowly slide the DIMM module along the plastic guides on both
ends of the socket.
3. Press the DIMM module right down into the socket, until you hear
a click. This is when the two handles have automatically locked the
memory module into the correct position of the DIMM socket.
To take out a memory module, just push both handles outward, and the
module will be ejected by the mechanism in the socket.
Note: We do not recomend the use of both SIMMs
and DIMMs at the same time, due to their different
voltages. This may result in unstable system
operation.
