Memory Installation

Use only the HP memory modules provided for your PC Workstation model. If you
want to find out about available accessories for your PC Workstation, refer to the HP
Accessories Web site at: http://www.hp.com/go/pcaccessories.
RDRAM Modules to be used with the
Onboard RIMM
Two sockets supporting RDRAM modules. There may
be a third memory socket on the system board. This
socket is reserved uniquely for the SDRAM Memory
Expansion card.
•
If only one RDRAM module is installed, it must be
installed in the memory socket (RIMM0) nearest to
the processor(s).
•
If two RDRAM modules are installed, they must be
installed in the memory sockets (nearest to the
processor(s).
RIMM sockets must never be left empty.
•
If RIMM1 socket is unused, it must contain an
RDRAM Continuity Module.
•
Third memory socket (reserved for Memory
Expansion Card) must contain an RDRAM
Terminator Module (refer to the below note).
An RDRAM Terminator module can be distinguished from an RDRAM Continuity
Module by the components loaded on it. An RDRAM Continuity Module does not have
any components on it.
Your PC Workstation Does Not Start Correctly
Case 3 — Detected Hardware Configuration Error
SDRAM Modules to be Used with the
SDRAM Memory Expansion Card
Two DIMM sockets supporting SDRAM modules.
•
If only one SDRAM module is installed, it can be
installed in either slot.
•
If two SDRAM modules of different size are
installed, then the module with the highest capacity
must be installed in the socket nearest to the
system board.
Unused socket should be left empty; no continuity
module or terminator is required.
The two memory sockets on the system board,
RIMM0 and RIMM1, must each contain a continuity
module.
