Memory Configuration PRIMERGY TX200 S7
Each CPU offers 6
Slots
for DDR3 Memory Modules organised in
2 Banks and 3 Channels.
If you need more than 6 Slots you have to configure the 2nd CPU.
Depending on the amount of memory configured you can decide between 4 basic modes of operation (see explanation below).
There are 2 different kinds of DDR3 Memory Modules available: UDIMM and RDIMM
UDIMM / RDIMM offer different functionality. Mix of UDIMM / RDIMM is not alloved.
If 1.5V and 1.35V DIMMs are mixed, the DIMMs will run at 1.5V

Memory-Speed:
Max. DDR3 memory speed depends on the memory configuration on one memory channel and the speed of the CPU
The memory channel with the lowest speed defines the speed of all CPU channels in the system

Configuration hints:
- The memory sockets on the systemboard offer a color coding:
Bank I
black sockets
Bank II
blue sockets
- A so called Bank consits of 1 memory module on every Channel available on one CPU (examples see below)
Bank I on CPU 1/2
up to 3 memory modules connected to Channel A - F on the 1st/2nd CPU
Bank II on CPU 1/2
up to 3 memory modules connected to Channel A - F on the 1st/2nd CPU
- See below and next page for a detailed descriptions of the memory configuration supported.
