Installing Memory Modules - ECS N2U400-A Manual

Installing Memory Modules

This motherboard accommodates three 184-pin 2.5V unbuffered non-ECC
Double Data Rate (DDR) SDRAM memory modules.
This motherboard can support DDR266/DDR333/DDR400 memory modules
and allow up to 6.4 GB/s data transfer rate. Utilizing the dual-channel DDR
memory architecture, this motherboard provides a solution which doubles the
system memory bandwidth of your system memory and boost the system per-
formance. Please refer to page 16 for suggested dual-channel DDR
combinations.
You must install at least one module in any of the three slots. Each module
can be installed with 128 MB to 1 GB of memory. Total capacity is 3GB.
Do not remove any memory module from its antistatic packaging until
you are ready to install it on the motherboard. Handle the modules only
by their edges. Do not touch the components or metal parts. Always
wear a grounding strap when you handle the modules.
Refer to the following to install the memory modules.
1. This motherboard supports unbuffered DDR SDRAM only. Do not attempt
to insert any other type of DDR SDRAM into the slots.
2. Push the latches on each side of the DIMM slot down.
3. Align the memory module with the slot. The DIMM slots are keyed with
notches and the DIMMs are keyed with cutouts so that they can only be
installed correctly.
4. Check that the cutouts on the DIMM module edge connector match the
notches in the DIMM slot.
5. Install the DIMM module into the slot and press it firmly down until it seats
correctly. The slot latches are levered upwards and latch on to the edges
of the DIMM.
