Dual Channel mode will not be enabled if only one DDR2 memory module is
„
installed. DIMMs must be installed in pairs
Only use DDR2 memory chips in the DIMM slots
„
It is recommended that you use memory modules of identical brand, size,

chips, and speed.
DIMMs must use the same density memory chips
„
Both DIMMs must use the same DRAM bus width
„
Both DIMMs must be either single-sided or dual-sided.
