The system contains 16 memory sockets split into two sets of 8 sockets, one set per processor. Each 8-
socket set is organized into four channels. In each channel, the release levers of the first socket are
marked white and the second socket black.
NOTE: DIMMs in sockets A1 to A8 are assigned to processor 1 and DIMMs in sockets B1 to B8 are
assigned to processor 2.
