Important
-
DDRII modules are not interchangeable with DDR and the DDRII standard is
not backwards compatible. You should always install DDRII memory mod-
ules in the DDRII DIMMs and DDR memory modules in the DDR DIMMs.
-
In dual-channel mode, make sure that you install memory modules of
the
same type and density
in different channel DDR DIMMs.
-
To enable successful system boot-up, always insert the memory modules
into the
DIMM1 first.
