Installing DIMMs
Note:
Check the Supermicro web site for recommended memory modules:
http://www.supermicro.com/TECHSUPPORT/FAQs/Memory_vendors.htm
CAUTION
Exercise extreme care when installing or removing DIMM
modules to prevent any possible damage. Also note that the
memory is interleaved to improve performance (see step 1).
DIMM Installation
1. Insert either 4 or 8 identical DIMMs (-Memory of the same size and type)
i n t o t h e m e m o r y s l o t s , s t a r t i n g w i t h D I M M 1 ( J 1 6 ) , D I M M 2 ( J 1 3 ) ,
DIMM3(J11) & DIMM4(J9). (DIMM1-DIMM4 are the DIMM sockets colored
in blue.) If four more DIMMs are used, insert DIMM5(J15), DIMM6(J14),
DIMM7(J12) and DIMM8(J10) into the slots. (DIMM5-DIMM8 are the DIMM
sockets colored in black.) The memory scheme is interleaved, and you
must install four modules at a time, beginning with DIMM1, DIMM2,
DIMM3, DIMM4 (blue slots).
2. Insert each DIMM module vertically into its slot. Pay attention to the
notch along the bottom of the module to prevent inserting the DIMM
module incorrectly.
3. Gently press down on the DIMM module until it snaps into place in the
slot. Repeat for all modules (see step 1 above).
Memory Support
The i2DML-8G2/i2DML-iG2 supports up to 16 GB of buffered, Reg. ECC
D D R - 2 0 0 ( u t i l i z i n g D D R 2 6 6 m e m o r y o p e r a t i n g a t D D R 2 0 0 ) . A l l
motherboards were designed to support 2 GB modules in each slot.
