DIMM slots
DIMM slots are numbered sequentially (1 through 12) for each processor. The supported AMP modes use
the letter assignments for population guidelines.

—
*The server ships with one PCIe3 riser cage installed in the primary riser cage connector.
**The x16 PCIe3 riser cage is optional and can be converted to a FH riser. This conversion requires a
second processor to be installed.
Notes:
•
"Primary" denotes the riser cage is installed in the primary riser connector.
•
"Secondary" denotes the riser cage is installed in the secondary riser connector.
•
Installing the riser cages listed in the table above in either the primary or secondary riser connectors
determines the form factor of the PCI cards supported by those riser cages.
