Operating System
Most models are preloaded with Windows 2000. Some models are preloaded
with Windows NT® 4.0.
Main Memory
2 pairs of RIMM sockets supporting 2 or 4 PC800 RDRAM memory modules.
Each pair of memory sockets must contain identical memory modules
(identical in size, speed and type). That is, sockets
A1
and
B1
must contain
identical modules, and sockets A AA A2222 and B BB B2222 must contain identical modules (or
continuity modules).
If only two RDRAM modules are installed, use the sockets marked A AA A1111 and
B BB B1111. The other two sockets (A AA A2222 and B BB B2222) must contain continuity modules
Models are supplied with non-ECC RDRAM modules.
Both ECC and non-ECC modules are available.
