IBM System x3690 X5 10
Memory options
The IBM System x3690 X5 supports DDR3 memory. Memory is installed in DIMM sockets either on the
system planar (16 sockets) in an optional memory mezzanine tray (16 sockets). The DIMMs on the
system planar are directly connected to the first processor, and the DIMMs on the mezzanine are directly
connected to the second processor. If you install the mezzanine then you must install the second
processor. However the reverse is different: you do not have to install the mezzanine if you have two
processors installed (although for performance reasons the mezzanine is recommended).
The following two tables list memory options available for x3690 X5 server and for the MAX5 memory
expansion unit.
