Installing Additional Memory

The computer comes with double data rate 2 synchronous dynamic
random access memory (DDR2-SDRAM) dual inline memory
modules (DIMMs).

DIMMs

The memory sockets on the system board can be populated with up to
four industry-standard DIMMs. These memory sockets are populated
with at least one preinstalled DIMM. To achieve the maximum
memory support, you can populate the system board with up to 4GB
of memory configured in a high-performing dual channel mode.

DDR2-SDRAM DIMMs

For proper system operation, if the computer supports
DDR2-SDRAM DIMMs, the DIMMs must be:

industry-standard 240-pin

unbuffered PC3200 400 MHz-compliant or PC4300
533 MHz-compliant

1.8 volt DDR2-SDRAM DIMMs

The DDR2-SDRAM DIMMs must also:

support CAS latency 2.5 or 3 (CL = 2.5 or CL = 3)

contain the mandatory JEDEC SPD information

In addition, the computer supports:

256Mbit, 512Mbit, and 1Gbit non-ECC memory technologies

single-sided and double-sided DIMMS

DIMMs constructed with x8 and x16 DDR devices; DIMMs
constructed with x4 SDRAM are not supported
