Installing a SODIMM
The computer comes with double data rate 3 synchronous dynamic random access memory (DDR3-
SDRAM) small outline dual inline memory modules (SODIMMs).
The memory sockets on the system board can be populated with up to two industry-standard
SODIMMs. These memory sockets are populated with at least one preinstalled SODIMM. To achieve
the maximum memory support, you can populate the system board with up to 4 GB of memory.
For proper system operation, the SODIMMs must be:
●
industry-standard 204-pin
●
unbuffered non-ECC PC3-12800 DDR3-1600 MHz-compliant
●
1.5 volt DDR3-SDRAM SODIMMs
The DDR3-SDRAM SODIMMs must also:
●
support CAS latency 9 DDR3 1600 MHz (9-9-9 timing)
●
contain the mandatory Joint Electronic Device Engineering Council (JEDEC) specification
In addition, the computer supports:
●
2-Gbit non-ECC memory technologies
●
single-sided and double-sided SODIMMS
●
SODIMMs constructed with x8 and x16 devices; SODIMMs constructed with x4 SDRAM are not
supported
NOTE:
The system will not operate properly if you install unsupported SODIMMs.
Before beginning the replacement process, review
General hardware installation sequence on page 9
for procedures you should follow before and after installing or replacing hardware.
WARNING!
You must remove the right side panel to access the SODIMM compartment. Before
removing the side access panel, ensure that the thin client is turned off and the power cord is
disconnected from the electrical outlet.
