Main Memory
The HP Vectra VL 5/xx PC has three banks on the system board for installing
main memory; banks A, B and C. Each bank consists of two sockets. The PC is
supplied with 8 MB or 16 MB of main memory (two 4 MB or two 8 MB memory
modules installed in bank A).
It is recommended to install memory modules in pairs, so that each bank with
memory installed contains two memory modules of the same size. This enables
the bank to be accessed as 64-bit memory, and offers better performance than a
bank containing only one memory module (accessed as 32-bit memory). Main
memory can be installed up to a maximum of 192 MB.
The HP Vectra VL 5/xx PC supports memory interleaving when four memory
modules of the same size are installed in either banks A and B or banks B and C.
Configurations using memory interleaving will provide the best memory
performance.
