Chapter 4: Replacing memory modules
Sequence for populating DIMM connectors
To optimize system performance, install dual in-line memory modules (DIMMs) in the sequence that
is shown in the following table.
Installed microprocessors
Microprocessor 1
Microprocessor 2
Note:
Dual microprocessors require equal distribution of DIMMs between the processors. For
example, a 12GB DIMM would have connectors 3,6,8 and 11,14,16 populated.
Note:
If you install quad-rank DIMMs or a combination of quad-rank DIMMs and dual-rank DIMMs,
connectors 1, 4, 9, and 12 must be empty.
The following figure shows the numbering sequence of the DIMMs.
