NOTE:
Minimum one memory kit per processor must be installed.
It is recommended to install memory kits in multiples of two (four identical DIMMs) for quad-channel
symmetric memory configurations to increase memory transfer speed.
When two processors are installed, balance the DIMMs across the two processors.
Mix configurations of RDIMM and TSV RDIMM are not supported.
