Use these rules when adding DIMMs to the server.
The server supports 4 GB and 8 GB DIMMs
DIMMs must be added in pairs. Slots pairings are color coded.
All DIMMs controlled by a given CPU should be the same capacity and rank (All supported 4 GB and 8 GB DIMMs are dual-rank). Mixed configurations are supported, but might result in lower memory performance.
DIMM population must consist of equally loading each CPU with the same configuration. That is, the identical DIMM configuration should be replicated for each CPU in your system.
DIMM slots are numbered DIMM 0 — DIMM 7 with DIMM 0 residing closest to the CPU (center of the board)
The following table shows the DIMM slot pairing, pair numbering, and the order of population.
