Memory
The system unit supports 20 single in-line memory modules (SIMM) on the system board.
The SIMM modules are grouped in four memory banks consisting of five modules: four
memory modules plus one memory module in each bank for ECC (Error Correction Code).
Figure 6–2 shows the memory bank groupings on the system board.
A minimum of one memory bank (five modules) is required.
________________________ Warning ___________________________
Before installing a memory module, turn off all power to the system. Refer to
"Turning the System Off" in Chapter 4, "Basic Operation" for information about
turning off power.
