1. DIMM 1 DIMM 2 Introduction to DDR SDRAM DDR Double Data Rate SDRAM is similar to conventional SDRAM but doubles the rate by transferring data twice per cycle It uses 2 5 volts as opposed to 3 3 volts used in SDR SDRAM and requires 184 pin DIMM mod ules rather than 168 pin DIMM modules used by SDR SDRAM High memory bandwidth makes DDR an ideal solution for high performance PC worksta tions and servers Chapter 2 DDR Module Combination Install at least one DIMM module on the slot Memory modules can be installed on the slots in any order You can install either single or double sided modules to meet your own needs Memory modules can be installed in any combination as follows Slot Memory Module Total Memory DIMM 1 Bank 0 amp 1 SID 64MB 1GB DIMM 2 Bank 2 amp 3 SID 64MB 1GB Maximum System Memory Supported 64MB 2GB S Single Side D Double Side Installing DDR Modules 1 The DDR DIMM has only one notch on the center of module The module will only fit in the right o
