Memory Modules
Technical Information and Important Guidelines for
DIMM Installation
CAUTION:
Before removing the access panel, make sure that the server is
powered down, all cables are disconnected from the back of the server, and the
power cord is disconnected from the grounded AC outlet.
CAUTION:
To prevent damage to the system when handling components, see
Appendix B, “Electrostatic Discharge.”
CAUTION:
When handling a memory module, be careful not to touch any of the
contacts. Doing so may damage the module.
When installing DIMMs, you must follow these guidelines:
■
Use only 64-MB, 128-MB, 256-MB, or 512-MB registered PC133-MHz
ECC SDRAM DIMMs.
■
DIMMs must be industry-standard, 168-pin, PC133-MHz registered
SDRAM DIMMs. The SDRAM DIMMs must support CAS Latency 3
(CL=3).
■
Do not mix ECC and non-ECC SDRAM DIMMs. If different types of
DIMMs are mixed, the system does not function properly.
