●
Up to two LRDIMMs can be populated per channel regardless of rank count.
●
A maximum of two different ranked DIMMs can be populated in a channel regardless of
rank count.
●
If memory modules with different speeds are installed, they will operate at the speed of
the slowest installed memory module(s).
●
Populate memory module sockets only if a processor is installed.
o
For single-processor systems, sockets A1 to A10 are available.
o
For dual-processor systems, sockets A1 to A10 and sockets B1 to B6 are available.
●
Populate all the sockets with white release tabs first, followed by the black release tabs.
●
When mixing memory modules with different capacities, populate the sockets with
memory modules with the highest capacity first.
N
OTE
:
For example, if you want to mix 8 GB and 16 GB memory modules, populate 16
GB memory modules in the sockets with white release tabs and 8 GB memory
modules in the sockets with black release tabs.
●
Memory modules of different capacities can be mixed provided other memory population
rules are followed.
N
OTE
:
For example, 8 GB and 16 GB memory modules can be mixed.
●
In a dual-processor configuration, the memory configuration for each processor must be
identical.
N
OTE
:
For example, if you populate socket A1 for processor 1, then populate socket B1
for processor 2, and so on.
●
Mixing of more than two memory module capacities in one system is not supported.
●
Unbalanced memory configurations will result in a performance loss so always populate
memory channels identically with identical DIMMs for best performance.
●
Populate six identical memory modules per processor (one DIMM per channel) at a time to
maximize performance. DIMM population update for Performance Optimized mode with
quantity of 4 and 8 DIMMs per processor.
●
When the DIMM quantity is 4 per processor, the population is slot 1, 2, 4, 5.
●
When the DIMM quantity is 8 per processor, the population is slot 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10.
