Memory Modules
Technical Information and Important Guidelines for
DIMM Installation
When installing DIMMs, you must follow these guidelines:
■ Use only 128-, 256-, 512-MB, or 1-GB PC 133-MHz Registered ECC
SDRAM DIMMs.
■ DIMMs must be industry-standard 168-pin PC 133-MHz or faster
registered SDRAM DIMMs. The SDRAM DIMMs must support CAS
Latency 2 or 3 (CL=2 or CL=3). They must also contain the mandatory
Joint Electronic Device Engineering Council (JEDEC) Serial Presence
Detect (SPD) information.
■ Do not mix ECC and non-ECC SDRAM DIMMs. If different types of
DIMMs are mixed, the system does not properly function.
■ A DIMM can be installed only one way. Be sure to match the two
key slots on the DIMM with the tab on the DIMM socket. Push the
DIMM down into the DIMM socket, ensuring that it is fully inserted and
properly seated.
CAUTION: When handling a memory module, be careful not to touch any of the
contacts. Doing so may damage the module.
