Note:
1 GB, 2 GB, 4 GB, 8 GB and 16 GB memory modules are supported. It
is highly recommended that you remove the power cord from the system before
installing or changing memory modules. Please refer to our web site for memory
that has been tested on the H8DCL-i/6(F) serverboard.
Memory Support
T h e H 8 D C L - i / 6 ( F ) s e r v e r b o a r d s u p p o r t s s i n g l e a n d d u a l c h a n n e l ,
DDR3-1333/1066/800 registered ECC/Unbuffered ECC/non-ECC SDRAM. Only
interleaved memory is supported, so you must populate two DIMM slots at a time,
one per channel (see procedure above).
Populating two adjacent slots at a time with memory modules of the same size and
type will result in interleaved (128-bit) memory, which is faster than non-interleaved
(64-bit) memory.
Maximum Memory
T h e H 8 D C L - i / 6 ( F ) s e r v e r b o a r d s u p p o r t s u p t o
32GB of ECC/Non-ECC UDIMM or up to 128GB of ECC RDIMM in 8 DIMM
slots.
