Memory Subsystem Architecture
Each Intel® Xeon® E5-4600 v3 family or Intel® Xeon® E5-4600 v3 family processor socket contains four memory channels that
support two DIMMs each for a total of eight (8) DIMM per installed processor or a grand total of thirty two DIMMs for the server. Up
to 64GB capacity DIMMs are supported for 2TB of memory (32 DIMM slots x 64GB per DIMM).
Memory Population Rules and Guidelines
:
A minimum of one DIMM is required per processor.
Install DIMMs only if the corresponding processor is installed.
If only two processors are installed in a four processor system, only half of the DIMM slots are available.
DIMM sizes can be mixed in channel. To maximize performance, it is recommended to balance the total memory capacity
between all installed processors and to load the channels similarly whenever possible.
LRDIMM and RDIMMs are all distinct memory technologies and cannot be mixed within a server. The majority of ProLiant
Gen9 servers support RDIMM and LRDIMM.
DIMMs of different speeds may be mixed in any order; the server will select a common optimal speed.
The maximum memory speed is a function of the memory type, memory configuration, and processor model.
The maximum memory capacity is a function of the memory type and number of installed processors.
HP memory from previous generation servers is not compatible with the BL660c Gen9 Server Blade.
To realize the performance memory capabilities listed in this document, HP SmartMemory is required. For additional
