Installing Additional Memory
The computer comes with double data rate synchronous dynamic
random access memory (DDR-SDRAM) dual inline memory
modules (DIMMs).
DIMMs
The memory sockets on the system board can be populated with
industry-standard DIMMs. These memory module slots are populated
with at least one preinstalled memory module. To achieve the
maximum memory support, you may be required to replace the
preinstalled DIMM with a higher capacity DIMM.
DDR-SDRAM DIMMs
For proper system operation, if your system supports DDR-SDRAM
DIMMs, the DIMMs must be industry-standard 184-pin, unbuffered
PC 1600 200 Mhz- or PC2100 266 Mhz-compliant, 2.5 volt
DDR-SDRAM DIMMs. The DDR-SDRAM DIMMs must support
CAS latency 2 or 2.5 (CL = 2 or CL = 2.5). They must also contain
the mandatory JEDEC SPD information. DIMMs constructed with x4
SDRAM are not supported; the system will not start using
unsupported DIMMs.
✎
The Intel 845-G chipset does not support ECC memory.
