modules to prevent any possible damage.
Memory Support
The H8DA6+-F supports single or dual-channel, DDR2-667/533/400 registered
ECC SDRAM.
Populating two adjacent slots at a time with memory modules of the same size and
type will result in interleaved (128-bit) memory, which is faster than non-interleaved
(64-bit) memory.
Note: Due to a CPU limitation, fully populating DIMM slots with DDR2-667 will pull
the speed down to 533 MHz. Please see our web site for possible updates to this
limitation.
Installing Memory Modules
1.
Insert each memory module vertically into its slot, paying attention to the
notch along the bottom of the module to prevent inserting the module
incorrectly (see Figure 5-6).
2.
Install to slots CPU1/DIMM1A and CPU1/DIMM1B fi rst, then to CPU1/
DIMM2A and CPU1/DIMM2B, etc. Always install in pairs and in the numerical
order of the DIMM slots. See support information below.
To Install:
Insert module vertically and press
down until it snaps into place.
The release tabs should close - if
they do not you should close them
yourself.
To Remove:
Use your thumbs to gently push
each release tab outward to re-
lease the DIMM from the slot.
