To Install:
Insert module vertically
and press down until it
snaps into place. The
release tabs should
close - if they do not
you should close them
yourself.
To Remove:
Use your thumbs to
gently push each re-
lease tab outward to
release the DIMM from
the slot.
Note: Notch
should align
with its
receptive point
on the slot

Note the notch in the slot and on the bottom of the DIMM.
These prevent the DIMM from being installed incorrectly.
Gently press down on the memory module until it snaps into place. 3.
With two CPUs installed, repeat step 2 to populate the CPU2 DIMM slots. 4.
Always install pairs of DIMMs to both CPU DIMM slots for more effi cient
operation.
Note: 256 MB, 512 MB, 1 GB, 2 GB, 4 GB and 8 GB memory modules are sup-
ported. It is highly recommended that you remove the power cord from the system
before installing or changing memory modules. Please refer to our web site for
memory that has been tested on the H8QI6/i-F serverboard.
Support
The H8QI6/i-F serverboard supports single or dual-channel, DDR2-800/667/533/400
registered ECC SDRAM. Only interleaved memory is supported, so you must popu-
late two DIMM slots at a time (see procedure above).
Populating two adjacent slots at a time with memory modules of the same size and
type will result in interleaved (128-bit) memory, which is faster than non-interleaved
(64-bit) memory. Note: Due to a CPU limitation, fully populating DIMM slots with
DDR2-667 will pull the speed down to 533 MHz. Please see our web site for pos-
sible updates to this limitation.
Maximum Memory
128 GB of DDR2-800/667/533/400 registered ECC SDRAM.
