3: System Operation
Memory
70
Memory is contained on cards that are referred to as DIMMs (dual-inline memory
modules). Each Origin 300 base module can contain two or four DIMMs. If you are
adding memory to your system, populate the DIMM slots in the following order (refer to
Figure 3-13):
1.
Slots 1 and 3
2. Slots 2 and 4
The DIMMs that reside in slots 1 and 3 or slots 2 and 4 must be the same memory size;
however, the DIMMs in slots 1 and 3 may be a different memory size than the DIMMs in
slots 2 and 4.

Slot 2
Slot 3
Slot 4

Note: The DIMMs used in the SGI Origin 300 base module are not compatible with the
DIMMs used in Origin 200, Origin 2000, Onyx2, or Octane systems.
