2.7 Installing system memory (DIMMs)
You are able to install memory ranging from 8 to 128 MB of
DIMM onto your PCM-5864/5L card. The card provides one
168-pin DIMM socket, which accepts 8, 16, 32, 64 or 128 MB
3.3 V power level EDO/synchronous DIMMs.
2.7.1 Installing DIMMs
The procedure for installing DIMMs is described below. Please
follow these steps carefully. The number of pins are different on
either side of the breaks, so the module can only fit in one way.
DIMM modiles have different pin contacts on each side, and
therefore have a higher pin density.
1. Make sure that the two handles of the DIMM socket are in the
“open” position. i.e. The handles remain leaning outward.
2. Slowly slide the DIMM module along the plastic guides on
both ends of the socket.
3. Press the DIMM module right down into the socket, until you
hear a click. This is when the two handles have automatically
locked the memory module into the correct position of the
socket.
To remove the memory module, just push both handles outward,
and the module will be ejected from the socket.
2.8 IDE hard drive connector (CN12)
You can attach one or two Enhanced Integrated Device
Electronics hard disk drives to the PCM-5864/E/L’s internal
controller. The PCM-5864/E/L’s IDE controller uses a PCI local-
bus interface. This advanced IDE controller supports faster data
transfer, PID mode 3, and mode 4.
