Memory Banks
In the Compaq ProLiant 5500 and 5500R server, the memory board is grouped
into 4 banks where 1 bank is 2 DIMMs adjacent to 2 other DIMMs as shown
below for bank 1. When memory is added, you must add 1 bank at a time.
Memory banks are also identified on a label on the inside of the access panel.

Support for 50-ns DIMMs
Your server supports 50-ns and 60-ns Dual Inline Memory Modules. You can
mix 50-ns and 60-ns DIMMs in the server; however, each DIMM of a given
bank must be of the same size, type, and speed. If you mix 50-ns and 60-ns
DIMMs, the memory speed is adjusted to the slower DIMM speed.
For use with Pentium II Xeon and Pentium III Xeon processor-based servers only
