Installing Memory Modules

This mainboard accommodates 184-pin 2.5V unbuffered Rambus
DRAM (RDRAM) memory modules. The memory chips must be
standard or registered RDRAM. The memory bus runs at 400 MHz.
Installation Procedure
The mainboard has four RIMM (Rambus DIMM) slots that accommo-
date up to 2 GB of memory. You can only install the memory modules
in pairs; therefore, you must install at least two RIMM modules. The
dummy Rambus DRAM modules (C-RIMM) must be inserted in un-
populated slots.
1. Align the memory module with the slot. The RIMM
slots are keyed with notches and the RIMMs are keyed
with cutouts so that they can only be installed correctly.
2. Push the latches on each side of the RIMM slot down.
3. Check that the cutouts on the RIMM module edge
connector match the notches in the RIMM slot.

4. Install the RIMM module into the slot and press it
firmly down so that it seats correctly. The slot latches
are levered upwards and latch on to the edges of the
RIMM when it is installed correctly.
5. Install any remaining RIMM modules.
