Adding Memory (RAM) to SBS2003 1

[robFSS]

Hello All,

I purchased 2gb of ram to add to my Dell server running SBS2003.

I'm just wondering, can I install the RAM normally the way I would with a regular desktop PC - shut down, open box, install ram, close box, power up, wait for memory change message, accept changes, get on with my life... - Or do I have to do anything special?

Thanks,
Rob

Yes. Boot the box, and verify it's being reported correctly in the OS.

Be careful to install the RAM according to the diagram that's inside the cover of your Dell server. The rows are alternating and you need to keep even pairs on the alternating rows.
