RAM Expansion Modules

The RAM expansion modules for the iMac family computers are 168-pin SDRAM DIMMs that are 3.3 volt, unbuffered, 8-byte, non-parity, and PC-100 compliant. The speed of the SDRAM devices must be rated at 125 MHz (8 ns) or faster.

IMPORTANT

RAM expansion DIMMs for the iMac family of computers must be PC-100 compliant and use SDRAM devices. If the user installs a DIMM that uses EDO or SGRAM devices, the computer will beep several times when the user attempts to restart the computer.
