system memory.
When installing memory, the following rules apply:
v Use 2.5 V, 184-pin, double data rate synchronous dynamic random access
v Use 128 MB, 256 MB, 512 MB, or 1 GB DIMMs in any combination.
Note: Only DDR SDRAM DIMMs can be used.
To install DIMMs:
1. Access the system board. See "Accessing system board components and drives"
