A minimum of one 256-MB FBDIMM is required in DIMM socket A1 or B1. This uses
single-channel interleave. However, for dual-channel interleave, providing optimum
performance, a minimum of two FBDIMMs should be installed in DIMM sockets A1 and
B1. Except for the option of installing a single DIMM in socket A1 or B1, DIMMs must
be installed in pairs and populated as follows:
•
DIMM A1 and DIMM B1: Populate these two sockets together first
•
DIMM A2 and DIMM B2: Populate these sockets in addition to DIMM A1 and
DIMM B1 if four DIMMs are to be used
•
DIMM A3 and DIMM B3: Populate these sockets after DIMM A1, DIMM B1,
DIMM A2, and DIMM B2 have been populated
•
FBDIMMs must meet the following requirements:
— Use only FBDIMM 667-MHz fully buffered, registered DIMM modules.
— Use only FBDIMMs that comply with the JEDEC Revision 2.0 specifications.
— Use only 240-pin DIMMs.
In determining your memory requirements, the need for memory sparing or memory
mirroring must be considered. For a complete list of supported memory DIMMs, see the
links under “Server System References” on page ix .
