Dual In-Line Memory Modules 
(DIMMs)

 

The Power Macintosh 9500 Series computers use DRAM 

Dual In-Line Memory Modules (DIMMs) instead of DRAM 

SIMMs. 

Whereas SIMMs have 72 pins, DIMMs have 168 pins. The 

extra pins provide a 64-bit data path, compared to a 32-bit 

data path for SIMMs. In addition, DIMMs do not have to be 

installed in pairs like the SIMMs on earlier Macintosh 

models. (However, to take advantage of memory 

interleaving, the DIMMs should be installed in paired slots. 

See "Memory Configurations" in Basics for more 

information.)

 

The Single In-Line Memory Modules (SIMMs) 

used in previous Macintosh models are NOT compatible with
