indicates a populated DIMM slot.
2. Use paired memory installation for max performance.
3. Populate the same DIMM type in each channel, specifically
- Use the same DIMM size
- Use the same # of ranks per DIMM
4. Dual-rank DIMMs are recommended over single-rank DIMMs.
5. Un-buffered DIMM can offer slightly better performance than registerd DIMM if
populating only a single DIMM per channel.
6. Always install with DIMM_A0 Slot first, following the alphabetical order (starting with
DIMM_A0, DIMM_B0, DIMM_C0, DIMM_D0), and then the numerical order (starting
with DIMM_A1, DIMM_B1, DIMM_C1, DIMM_D1, DIMM_A2, DIMM_B2, DIMM_C2,
DIMM_D2).
