1. Three additional processors may be installed, providing a maximum of four. All processors must be identical in type, speed,
and cache size. See diagram for order of installation.
2. Requires removal of the standard processor. A maximum of four processors may be installed (see xSeries 255 planar
diagram for order of installation). All processors must be identical in type, speed and cache size. Upgrades may require a BIOS
update. To obtain the latest Flash BIOS, access www.pc.ibm.com/support and enter machine “Type-Model” in Quick Path.
Select “Downloadable files” and then “BIOS.”

33L3281
256MB PC1600 ECC DDR SDRAM RDIMM
33L3283
512MB PC1600 ECC DDR SDRAM RDIMM
33L3285
1GB PC1600 ECC DDR SDRAM RDIMM
1. To support two-way interleaving, optional RDIMMs must be installed in pairs up to a maximum of six
RDIMMs including the standard RDIMMs. To support four-way interleaving, the first two optional RDIMMs are
installed to complete one four-way set, then the next two sets are installed, each of which includes four
matching RDIMMs. All RDIMMs in a set must be the same density and technology, but the sets are not
required to match other sets. Four-way interleaving provides improved performance benefits over two-way
interleaving. Chipkill support is provided on the memory card. See RDIMM Order of Installation table below.

1. Two RDIMMs installed in D2 and D8 are standard in base models with two-way interleaving enabled. If two-way interleaving is maintained, then a pair of RDIMMs can be installed in D4 and
D8 and two more in D6 and D12. If four-way interleaving is enabled, RDIMMs must be added in D1 and D7 to complete Bank 3, then four RDIMMs are added in Bank 2 and four more
RDIMMs can be added in Bank 1
2. If Hot Spare Memory is enabled by the system BIOS, memory bank 3 is used as a spare bank in the event of RDIMM failure. Bank 3 serves as a hot spare for both banks 1 and 2. Hot Spare
Memory does not apply when only two RDIMMs are installed or when only four RDIMMs are installed with four-way interleaving. Hot Spare Memory is not addressable by the CPU until
activated. Memory density and technology must be the same in both the active and spare banks.
