For memory to work properly, follow the tables below for memory installation:
Per Channel DIMM Populations Options

SR or DR Empty 1600 MHz 1333 MHz 8 GB
SR SR 1600 MHz 1333 MHz 4 GB
DR DR 1333 MHz 1066 MHz 16 GB
Note 1: Due to OS limitations, some operating systems may not show more than
4 GB of memory.
Note 2: Due to memory allocation to system devices, the amount of memory that
remains available for operational use will be reduced when 4 GB of RAM is used.
The reduction in memory availability is disproportional.
Installling a 3.5" SATA Drive
1. Power down the system and unplug the
AC power cord.
2. Remove the chassis cover as described.
3. Use screws to secure the drive directly into the
left side of the chassis as shown in the figure.
Installling 2.5" SATA Drives
1. Power down the system and unplug the AC power cord.
2. Remove the chassis cover.
3. Use screws to secure the drive into the hard drive bracket:
For two drives the bracket is p/n MCP-220-00044-0N.
For one drive the bracket is p/n MCP-220-00051-0N.
4. Use screws to secure the bracket/drive assembly into the
left side of the chassis as shown in the figure.
The 2.5" hard drives (1) must be installed in the (optional)
bracket (2) before they are screwed into the chassis.
