2-4 Installing DDR2 Memory
Note: Check the Supermicro web site for recommended memory modules.
CAUTION
Exercise extreme care when installing or removing DIMM
modules to prevent any possible damage. Also Note that the
memory is interleaved to improve performance (See step 1).
DIMM Installation
Insert the desired number of DIMMs into the memory slots, starting with 1.
DIMM1A. Insert each DIMM module vertically into its slot. Pay attention to
the notch along the bottom of the module to prevent incorrect DIMM module
installation.
Gently press down on the DIMM module until it snaps into place in the slot. 2.
Repeat step 1 to install DIMM1B if needed.
Memory Support
The X 7S LM / X 7SLM+ suppor t s up to 2G B Unbuf fered N o n - ECC D D R 2 667/5 3 3 /4 0 0
in 2 DIMM slots. Populating these DIMM modules with a pair (or pairs) of memory
modules of the same type and same size will result in interleaved memory, which
will improve memory performance.
To Install: Insert module vertically and press down
until it snaps into place. Pay attention to the align-
ment notch at the bottom.
Installing and Removing DIMMs
To Remove:
Use your thumbs
to gently push
