Memory Configuration Guidelines C-11
Example - Adding Memory to Two Extenders with Existing Memory
1. Remove the 128MB modules from the first extender, slots 2a/2b and 3a/3b. Remove the 32MB module
from the second extender, slots 4a/4b.
2. Add the removed modules to the new modules to form the following groups:
• (2) 256MB modules (one pair of modules)
• (1) 128MB module and (1) 64MB module (one pair of modules)
• (2) 32MB modules (one pair of modules)
3. Install the largest-size (256MB) pair of modules in the lowest-numbered available slots (2a/2b and 3a/
3b) on the extender with the most available slots. Since both extenders have the same available slots,
install them on the first extender.
4. Install the 128MB pair in slots 4a/4b and 5a/5b on the first extender.
