[SunHELP] Ultra 5 400 memory

[Michael Horton]

Thomas,

The limitation on the Ultra 5 is due to the physical
size (height) of the DIMMs.  The Ultra 5, having the
same motherboard and processor as the Ultra 10 will
recognize 1GB of RAM.  You just can't fit Sun DIMMs in
the box and use all the slots, etc.


Hope this helps,

HN
