3.5.2 SDR DIMM Support
The three SDR DIMM sockets support 3.3Volt (power level) unbuffered/registered
Single Data Rate Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory (SDR SDRAM)
of 64MB, 128MB, 256MB, 512MB, and 1GB to form a memory size between 64MB
to 3GB. One side (with memory chips) of the DIMM takes up one row on the
motherboard.
