Memory [std. 1 / max.4]
NOTE
1x 1GB DIMM is factory-installed.
The memory module available for the GT110b are DDR3-1333(PC3-10600) Unbuffered type with ECC
(but memory of Celeron G1101 model, Pentium G6950 model frequency is 1066MHz)
Memory extension by one DIMM is possible, but a set of two DIMMs (same capacity) is recommended. (for
2way interleave)
If there are different capacity DIMMs, larger capacity DIMMs should be installed in the smaller number slots.
For more details about the memory size supported by each OS, please refer to the “Supplementary Notes
<Memory (1)>”at the end of this document.
Additional memory module (1x 1GB) [N8102-342F]
Additional memory module (1x 2GB) [N8102-343F]
Additional memory module (1x 4GB) [N8102-344F]
UP to four memory modules can be installed.
You can expand the memory capacity up to 16GB(4x 4GB) by replacing the standard DIMM.

Notes for AFT/SFT/ALB Teaming of network
You can create a Teaming between the standard LAN interface and N8104-121/125A/126.
Teaming is possible between the same N-code LAN cards.
Other combinations for Teaming are not supported.
Supplementary notes
For details of each card, refer to the technical guide.
The performance described between parenthesis is the max performance of the card itself.
When the performance of the PCI card is higher than the PCI slot, the PCI card operates with lower performance.
