2.1.5.   Upgrading System Memory

 

 

 

   

      The R656 mainboard can use    4- 168pin SDRAM DIMM and the system 

              memory can be upgraded from 8MB to 512MB, or the mainboard can use 
              4-168pin 3.3v EDO/FP DIMM and the system memory can upgraded from 
              8MB to 1GB.             
 

 

 

    Each of module can be either single or double-sided. 

 
       DRAM TYPE 

:  3.3v  168pin Fast Page Mode(FP) or Extended Data  

 

      Output(EDO) or BEDO Mode or SDRAM. 

       DRAM Speed     :  60ns or faster. 
       Parity  

:  Either parity or non-parity. 

(Require Parity Memory to Support ECC) 

 

 

Installing a DIMM Module   

 
 

A.

B.

Insert the DIMM module  into
the socket at an angle.

Put out the DIMM module from the 
DIMM socket.

Press
