Installing memory
The system board supports up to 1 GB of RAM in ECC SDRAM DIMMs.
The system board is configured with 4 DIMM banks. You can fill Bank 0,
Bank 1, Bank 2, or Bank 3 or a combination of banks with DIMMs. No
jumper settings are required for the memory size or type because this
information is automatically detected by the BIOS.
Refer to the DIMM configuration chart later in this section for valid
memory configurations. You may select any combination that provides the
total RAM required by your system and applications.
1. Turn off the system and disconnect the power cord.
2. Open the case (“Opening the system” on page 3), observing the static
electricity precautions in “Static electricity precautions” on page 2.
3. Pull open the socket clamps on each side of the DIMM socket.

4. Insert the DIMM into the socket and align the two notches in the
DIMM with the two notches in the DIMM socket.
