5-5 Installing Memory
Note: Check the Supermicro web site for recommended memory modules.
CAUTION
Exercise extreme care when installing or removing DIMM modules
to prevent any possible damage. Also note that the memory is inter-
leaved to improve performance (see step 1).
DIMM Installation (See Figure 5-5)
1. Insert the desired number of DIMMs into the memory slots, starting with
DIMM1A. The interleaved memory scheme requires you to install two modules at
a time, beginning with DIMM1A and DIMM2A then DIMM1B and 2B, etc.
2. Insert each DIMM module vertically into its slot. Pay attention to the notch along
the bottom of the module to prevent inserting the DIMM module incorrectly.
3. Gently press down on the DIMM module until it snaps into place in the slot.
Repeat for all modules (see step 1 above).
Memory Support
The X7DVL-E/X7DVL-i supports up to 16 GB of registered ECC FBD DDR2-
667/533 SDRAM. You should not mix DIMMs of different sizes and speeds. See
Figure 5-5 for installing and removing memory modules.
