Installing the Options

3.

Turn the SU700 upside down, and screw in the 12 larger screws along the bottom
perimeter.

4.

Turn the SU700 right side up again.

3. Installing SIMMs

You can increase the SU700 memory capacity by installing commercially available
SIMMs (single in-line memory modules).

IMPORTANT

The SU700 comes standard with 4MB of (non-SIMM) memory, and can accept up to 64MB
of SIMM expansion memory. (Maximum accessible memory space is 68MB.)

You may install 4MB, 8MB, 16MB, or 32MB SIMMs. SIMMs are sold in pairs, and you must
install both SIMMs in the pair. (The two SIMMs must have the same size and ratings.)

You need to use 72-pin SIMMs with access time of 70ns or less. The SU700 is designed for
use with 32-bit SIMMs, but can also accept 36-bit (parity-type) SIMMs.

If you are also installing an AIEB1 board at this time, please be sure that you install the
SIMMs before you install the AIEB1 board.

Preparation

1.

Make sure that you have your two SIMMs ready to install.
Note that SIMMs are extremely sensitive to electrostatic discharge. Please touch the
SU700 case with your hand (to remove electrostatic buildup from your body) before
you handle the SIMMs.

2.

If you have not yet done so, unfasten and lift off the top cover as described in “Flip-
ping the Cover” on page 314 above.
