5-6 Installing Memory
1. Memory support
The P8SCT supports up to 4 GB of dual or single-channel, unbuffered ECC or
unbuffered non-ECC DDR2-533 or DDR2-400 SDRAM. Both interleaved and non-
interleaved memory are supported, so you may populate any number of DIMM slots.
Populating two slots at a time (starting with Bank 1: DIMM1A and DIMM 1B) with
the same size and type of memory modules will result in dual-channel (two-way
interleaved) operation, which is faster than single channel operation.
2. Installing memory modules
Insert each memory module vertically. Pay attention to the notches along the bottom
of the module to prevent inserting it incorrectly. Gently press down on the DIMM
module until it snaps into place in the slot (see Figure 5-3).
!
CAUTION! Exercise extreme care when installing or removing
DIMM modules to prevent any possible damage.
To Install: Insert module vertically and press down until it snaps into place. Pay attention to the bottom
notches.
To Remove: Use your thumbs to gently push each release tab outward to free the DIMM from the
slot.
