11.3 DSIMMs
This section describes the procedures for removing and replacing faulty DSIMMs. To
determine the location of a faulty DSIMM, see Section 4.4 “Determining Faulty
DSIMM Locations.”
SPARCstation 5 system units come equipped with a minimum of 16 Mbytes of
dynamic random access memory (DRAM), expandable to 256 Mbytes. Physically,
DRAM chips are grouped in single in-line memory modules (DSIMMs) that plug in
to each of the eight DSIMM slots located on the system unit’s main logic board.
The SPARCstation 5 system accepts industry-standard JEDEC SIMMs, which are
widely available from a number of different suppliers. Sun Microsystems offers two
different types of DSIMMs for this system—an 8-Mbyte DSIMM and a 32-Mbyte
DSIMM. The maximum memory configuration is 256 Mbytes using eight 32-Mbyte
DSIMMs.
