Installing Additional Memory
Your eMac comes with at least 256 megabytes (MB) of Double Data Rate Synchronous
Dynamic Random Access Memory (DDR-SDRAM). There are two memory slots, one of
which is usually available for expansion. Each memory slot accepts any memory
module that meets the following specifications:
 Double Data Rate Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory (DDR-SDRAM)
 PC-2700 (commonly referred to as DDR-333) or PC-3200 (commonly referred to as
DDR-400)
Note: You can use either DDR-333 or DDR-400 as expansion memory. If you use a
DDR-400 DIMM, however, it will operate at the same speed as DDR-333 memory.
There is no performance benefit in using DDR-400.
 184 pin DIMMs
 +2.5V
 Unbuffered/Unregistered
The maximum amount of RAM you can have in your eMac is 1 gigabyte (GB), using two
512 MB memory modules.
Warning:
Consult the service and support information that came with your computer
for instructions on how to contact Apple for service. If you attempt to install memory
and damage your equipment, such damage is not covered by the limited warranty on
your computer.
