Memory Installation Procedures
This section outlines how to install Registered PC2100/PC2700/PC3200 DDR DIMMs into
the ServerBoard.
installing memory
This ServerBoard uses Dual Inline Memory Modules (DIMM). Two 4-DIMM socket
memory banks are available, one memory bank for each CPU socket. The DIMM sockets
accommodate PC2100/PC2700/PC3200 (DDR266/DDR333/DDR400) and Double Data
Rate (DDR) memory modules in 128MB, 256MB, 512MB, 1GB and 2GB size combinations.
Total installed memory size is between a minimum of 128MB to a maximum of 16GB.
The Design of the processor is such that the Memory Controller Hub (MCH) is built-in to the
processor. Therefore, if there is no processor present, the respective DIMM Bank is NOT
recognized. This is important to note when there is only one (1) processor present (CPU0).
Only the H0 DIMM bank will be active, allowing only 4 DIMMs for a max memory of 8 GB.
IMPORTANT
* The ServerBoard has strict memory and timing requirements. Before buying DDR
(Double Data Rate) DIMMs for use with the ServerBoard, it is recommended that
you consult your local reseller for the best and most compatible memory to use.
* The Memory Controller Hub is built-in to the Processor. If NO processor is
present, the respective DIMM Bank is NOT recognized.
* This ServerBoard only supports Registered PC2100/PC2700/PC3200 (DDR266/
DDR333/DDR400) compliant modules.
1. Locate the Memory Banks on the ServerBoard, where you will be installing the
DIMMs.
