General memory module installation guidelines
NOTE:
If your system's memory configurations fail to observe these guidelines, your system might not boot, might stop
responding during memory configuration, or might operate with reduced memory.
The system supports Flexible Memory Configuration, enabling the system to be configured and run in any valid chipset architectural
configuration. The following are the recommended guidelines for installing memory modules:
•
RDIMMs and LRDIMMs must not be mixed.
•
x4 and x8 DRAM based memory modules can be mixed. For more information, see the Mode-specific guidelines section.
•
Up to two RDIMMs can be populated per channel regardless of rank count.
