companion
chip
allowing
up
to
1
GB
of
memory
for

Cell/B.E.
companion
chip

pairs
of
dual

modules
(DIMMs).
You
may
fit
one
or
more
memory
modules
for
each
buffer,
but
each
I/O
buffer
must
use
the
same
type
of
memory
module
and
have
the
same
amount
of
memory.
The
minimum
amount
of
memory
you
can
add
is
512
MB
per
buffer,
or
one
module
per
buffer.
If
you
fit
a
single
pair
of
DIMMs
you
must
use
slots
JDIM00
and
JDIM11.
