4 Installing Additional Memory
Introduction
The HP NetServer’s main memory is implemented using four memory slots on the
system board and it supports up to 2 GB (512 MB x 4) of memory. The NetServer
uses only 3.3V, 168-pin, 133 MHz, buffered, SDRAM DIMMs and ships with at
least one 128 MB DIMM. The embedded video controller is provided with 4 MB
standard video memory and cannot be upgraded.
NOTE
Use only PC 133 (133 MHz) SDRAM DIMMs acquired from
Hewlett-Packard. The EDO DIMMs and PC 100 SDRAM
DIMMs from earlier HP NetServer models will fit into the
DIMM slots in the HP NetServer E 800, but the EDO DIMMs
and PC 100 SDRAM will not function properly.
To ensure you have the correct DIMMs before installation, refer to one of the
following for a list of qualified DIMMs:

a static-dissipating work surface, a chassis clip lead, and a wrist strap.
Memory Installation Guidelines
•
The HP NetServer E 800 only uses 133 MHz (PC133) buffered SDRAM
DIMMs, which are electrically different from the EDO and PC100
SDRAM memory modules used in previous HP NetServer models.
•
DIMMs sizes supported are 128 MB, 256 MB, or 512 MB in any
combination.
