System Memory
The system comes standard with 8-MB of memory. System memory can be expanded up to
80 MB for the desktop system and up 136 MB for the minitower system. Memory expan-
sion is performed using single in-line memory modules (SIMMs) installed in SIMM sockets.
The standard 8 MB of memory is soldered on the system board. The first megabyte includes
the standard 640 KB of base memory. The remaining memory is extended memory. Four
SIMM sockets are integrated on the system board.
The SIMM memory sockets accept 1-, 2-, 4-, 8-, 16-, or 32-MB SIMM sticks. High-speed
RAM is 32 bits wide with four parity bits. SIMMs are 256 K x 36 bit (1 MB), 512 K x 36
bit (2 MB), 1 M x 36 bit (4 MB), 4 M x 36 bit (16 MB), and 8 M x 36 bit (32 MB). There
are no switches or jumpers to set when SIMMs are added.
