5-6 Installing Memory
1. Memory support:
The 370SSR+/SSE+ supports 64MB/128MB/256MB/512 MB unbuffered
SDRAM in three 25-degree DIMMs. PC133 and PC100 memory are both
supported at their respective speeds. However, if three DIMM modules
are installed, the memory will run at 100MHz even if PC133 memory is
used due to chipset limitations.
2. Installing memory modules:
Insert each DIMM module into its slot in a 25-degree angle. Pay attention
to the two notches along the bottom of the module to prevent inserting
the DIMM module incorrectly. Gently press down on the DIMM module
until it snaps into place in the slot (see Figure 5-4).
!
CAUTION! Exercise extreme care when install-
ing or removing DIMM modules to prevent any
possible damage. The MEC must be populated
in the manner described in Step 2 below.
To Install: Insert module vertically and press down until it snaps into
place. Pay attention to the bottom notches. To Remove:
Use your thumbs to gently push each release tab outward to free the
DIMM from the slot.
Note: Notches
should align
with the
receptive points
on the slot
