Figure 8. DIMM Slot Nomenclature
On the Intel
®
Server Board S5500HV the DIMM slots are identified as shown below:
Figure 9. Intel Server Board S5500HV Memory Slot Layout
Note:
Memory is only populated using DIMM slots associated with a given installed processor.
Ie.) With only one processor installed, only the DIMM slots associated with that processor
should be populated. Memory installed into DIMM slots for a processor that is not installed are
non-functional.
DIMMs are organized into physical slots on DDR3 memory channels that belong to
processor sockets.
The memory channels from processor socket 1 are identified as Channels A, B, and C.
The memory channels from processor socket 2 are identified as Channels D, E, and F.
