Installing Additional Memory
Install additional memory as follows:
1. Power off the system, remove the access panel, and attach an antistatic wrist strap
as described in "Preparing for Installation" on page en-24.
2. Review the following important memory installation information before you
begin installing the memory.
The system's dual in-line memory modules (DIMMs) are arranged in two banks,
each bank consisting of four connectors.
The system must have either four or eight DIMMs installed to operate.
Each DIMM bank being used must contain four DIMMs of equal density to
function properly (for example, four 256-Mbyte DIMMs in bank 0, four 1-GB
DIMMs in bank 1). Do not mix DIMM densities within a bank.
The default position for DIMMs installed at the factory is in the four connectors
labeled "0" in
When adding additional DIMMs, fill the four connectors labeled "1" (also see
