Installing Memory (RAM) Modules.
This section describes how to install memory (RAM) into A-Class servers.
Computer memory is commonly referred to as Random Access Memory (RAM).
The terms RAM and memory are used interchangeably in this documentation.
Abbreviated Memory SIMM installation instructions also appear on the 11" x 14"

A-Class memory is sold as a module. A module is defined as two SIMMs. A-Class
servers support three memory module sizes: 128MB, 256MB and 512MB. The
128MB memory module consists of two 64MB SIMMS. The 256MB memory
module consists of two 128MB SIMMs and the 512MB memory module consists of
two 256MB SIMMs. A memory module occupies two slots. The size (or capacity)
of a memory SIMM is printed along the top edge of the SIMM.
