System Memory

System supports 133-MHz registered SDRAM memory (Synchronous
DRAM).
Error Checking and Correcting (ECC) memory uses an error-encoding
scheme for memory error detection and correction. Specifically, this feature detects and corrects single-bit memory errors.
System is expandable to 4-GB of memory (when available) installed in
dual-inline memory module (DIMM) sockets. Memory can be expanded one module at a time.

Expansion Slots

The expansion slots on the riser board are configured as shown.

Pre-Failure Warranty on processors, memory, and hard drives.

Pre-Failure Warranty

The Compaq ProLiant DL380 server includes a Pre-Failure Warranty for processors, hard drives, and memory purchased from Compaq through Compaq authorized resellers. Under the terms of this warranty, supported components are eligible for replacement before they actually fail provided that you use Compaq Insight Manager and that the system determines that the supported components have degraded below predetermined reliability thresholds within the product warranty period.

Insight Manager Alert

When Insight Manager alerts you that a component may be eligible for Pre-Failure Warranty replacement, follow the on-screen instructions or contact a Compaq authorized service provider in your area. A yellow status indicator on the Insight Manager control panel signals that a component is in a degraded condition and recommends that you replace the component in a pre-failure condition.
