Purchasing considerations:
When purchasing a DDR RAM
DIMM module to install on the subsystem controller board, contact
your subsystem vendor for an updated list of compatible DIMM
modules.
DDR RAM DIMM module supported:
The subsystem supports
184-pin, registered, ECC-capable DDR RAM DIMM modules with
memory capacities between 256MB and 2GB. It is strongly
recommended to purchase DIMM modules from Rorke or our
vendors to avoid compatibility issues. We provide tested modules
from reliable vendors with reliable chips.
Installation considerations:
When installing the DDR RAM
