1. Install the desired number of DIMM modules on the CPU board; each board
supports up to 12 DIMMs. When installing memory, be sure to always
populate the blue slots first, starting with DIMMA1, DIMMB1, DIMMC1,
DIMMD1, DIMME1, and DIMMF1. For best performance, use the memory
modules of the same type and same speed in the same bank.
