Memory Riser and DIMM Configuration

The motherboard provides eight slots for DIMMs. You can add a pair of memory risers, each with four DIMM slots, making a total of 16 DIMMs in the server.

The memory configuration rules for the server are as follows:

  • In all configurations, DIMMs must be identical (same size, same rank classification).

  • In base configurations, all DIMM slots on the motherboard must be fully occupied (eight DIMMs).

  • In upgrade configurations (16 DIMMs):

    • DIMM slots on the motherboard must be fully occupied.

    • Both memory risers must be installed, and both fully occupied.


    Note -  The DIMM sparing feature is available only when the optional memory risers are installed and fully occupied.
