Memory Population Guidelines
When installing memory modules, the DIMM slots should be populated in
the following order: DIMMA2, DIMMB2, then DIMMA1, DIMMB1.
• Always use DDR4 DIMM modules of the same size, type and speed.
• Mixed DIMM speeds can be installed. However, all DIMMs will run at the
speed of the slowest DIMM.
