Memory optimized (independent channel) mode
This mode supports Single Device Data Correction (SDDC) only for memory modules that use x4 device
width. It does not impose any specific slot population requirements.
Sample memory configurations
The following tables show sample memory configurations for one and two processor configurations that
follow the appropriate memory guidelines.
NOTE: 1R and 2R in the following tables indicate single- and dual-rank DIMMs respectively.
