The processor has two MCUs, which can support up to four DDR3 memory links. Each link within an MCU connects to two DDR3 DIMMs, providing a total of eight DDR3 slots. The blade server uses four of the channels with two DDR3 DIMM slots per channel, operating at 1066 MHz.
The blade server can support 4-GB DDR3 memory modules for configurations of 16 GB and 32 GB total memory, thermals and power permitting. Each memory channel has two slots: 0 and 1. All channels must be populated.
