Support Unbuffered DDR DIMM Sizes type: 64 Mbit (2Mx8x4 banks) 64 Mbit (1Mx16x4 banks) 128 Mbit(2Mx16x4 banks) 256 Mbit(8Mx8x4 banks) 512 Mbit(16Mx8x4 banks) 512 Mbit(8Mx16x4 banks) 128 Mbit(4Mx8x4 banks) 256 Mbit(4Mx16x4 banks) DDR 1. The DIMM socket has a notch, so the DIMM memory module can only fit in one direction. 2. Insert the DIMM memory module vertically into the DIMM slot. Then push it down. 3. Close the plastic clip at both edges of the DIMM sockets to lock the DIMM module. Reverse the installation steps when you wish to remove the DIMM module. M When DIMM LED is ON, do not install/remove DDR from socket. M Please note that the DIMM module can only fit in one direction due to the one notches. Wrong orientation will cause improper installation. Please change the insert orientation. - 11 - Hardw are Installation Process
