Figure 5-3. Installing DIMM into Slot
To Install: Insert module vertically and press down until it snaps into place. Pay attention to
the bottom notch.
To Remove: Use your thumbs to gently push each release tab outward to free the DIMM from
the slot.
Memory Support
The X7DBP-i/X7DBP-8 supports up to 32 GB of ECC FBD (Fully Buffered DIMM)
DDR2-667 or DDR2-533 SDRAM. The memory is an interleaved confi guration,
which requires modules of the same size and speed to be installed in pairs. You
should not mix DIMMs of different sizes and speeds. See Figure 5-3 for installing
and removing memory modules.

Notes: i. DIMM slot# indicates a populated DIMM slot; “---“ indicates an unpopulated
DIMM. ii. Both FBD 533 MHz and 667MHz DIMMs are supported, however you must
populate with memory modules of the same speed and type. iii. Interleaved memory
is supported when pairs of DIMM modules are installed. To optimize memory
performance, populate with pairs of memory modules in both Branch 0 and Branch 1.
iv. For memory to work properly, you need to follow these restrictions.
