Aptiva - 2162 System Memory

Applicable to: World-Wide

System Memory
The Aptiva Type 2162 has two sockets for 168-pin, Gold, SDRAM (Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory) DIMM modules.

DIMM Identification
168-pin memory DIMMs can usually be identified by the information on the chip modules (for example, 2M x 64, SDRAM ). To determine the DIMM capacity from the above example, divide 64 bits by 8 bytes and multiply that answer by 2M, hence, a 2M x 64 DIMM is 16 MB. DIMMs that are not clearly labeled cannot be identified other than by part number.
