The MAX5 supports a subset of the memory DIMMs listed as shown in the tables. The 16 GB memory
options that are supported in the MAX5 as listed in the above tables are only supported when it is the only
type of memory used in the MAX5. No other memory options can be used in the MAX5 if the 16GB DIMM
are used in the MAX5. This DIMM also supports redundant bit steering (RBS) when used in the MAX5 or
when used in x3690 X5 servers with E7 processors (machine type 7147).
The following memory protection technologies are supported:
ECC
ChipKill
Memory Mirroring
Memory Sparing
Redundant Bit Steering (MAX5 or servers with E7 processors only, x4 DIMMs only)
