Memory

Computers equipped with Intel-based processors come with double data rate synchronous
dynamic random access memory (DDR2) dual inline memory modules (DIMMs).

The memory sockets on the system board can be populated with up to four industry-standard
DIMMs. These memory module slots are populated with at least one preinstalled memory
module. 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.

For proper system operation, the computer supports DDR2-SDRAM DIMMs. The DIMMs must
be industry-standard 240-pin, unbuffered PC2 5300 667MHz or 6400 800MHz MHz-compliant,
1.8 volt DDR2-SDRAM DIMMs. The DDR2-SDRAM DIMMs must also:

support PC2 5300 667MHz or 6400 800MHz

contain the mandatory JEDEC SPD information

In addition, the computer supports:

512Mbit, 1Gbit and 2Gbit 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

The system will not start if you install unsupported DIMMs.
