You can increase your computer memory by installing memory modules on the system board.
Your computer supports unbuffered, non-ECC, DDR2 memory.
NOTE:
Buffered memory is not supported on this computer.
DDR2 Memory Overview
DDR2 memory modules should be installed in
pairs of matched memory size, speed,
and
technology
. If the DDR2 memory
modules are not installed in matched pairs, the computer will continue to operate, but with a slight reduction in performance.
See the label on the module to determine the module capacity.
NOTE:
Always install DDR2 memory modules in the order indicated on the system board.
The recommended memory configurations are:
A pair of matched memory modules installed in DIMM connectors 1 and 2 (white securing clips)
or
A pair of matched memory modules installed in DIMM connectors 1 and 2 and another matched pair installed in DIMM
connectors 3 and 4 (black securing clips)
NOTICE:
Do not install ECC memory modules.
If you install mixed pairs of DDR2 800-MHz (PC2-6400) and DDR2 533-MHz (PC2-4300) memory, the modules function
at the speed of the slowest module installed.
