6. How to Add System RAM
System memory is often called RAM or Random Access
Memory. RAM is the thinking space available to your
applications. Usually, the more system RAM you have, the
faster your system will run. Many software applications simply
run much faster and more efficiently when more RAM is
available.
You add RAM by adding single in-line memory modules
(SIMMs) into SIMM sockets on the mainboard. Your system
mainboard will hold up to six SIMMs of 32-bit RAM.
Note: SIMMs MUST ALWAYS BE INSTALLED IN ADJACENT
PAIRS AND MUST FILL A BANK.
A bank is made of two
adjacent SIMM sockets.
The table on the next page describes some of the many possible
memory configurations.
