Intel® Server System M50CYP2UR Family System Integration and Service Guide
Memory slots associated with a given processor are unavailable if the corresponding processor
socket is not populated.
Processor sockets are self-contained and autonomous. However, all memory subsystem support
(such as memory RAS and error management) in the BIOS Setup are applied commonly for each
installed processor.
For best system performance, memory must be installed in all eight channels for each installed
processor.
For best system performance in dual processor configurations, installed DDR4 DIMM type and
population for DDR4 DIMMs configured to CPU 1 must match DDR4 DIMM type and population
configured to CPU 0.

Intel® Optane™ DC Persistent Memory 200 Series Module Rules
All operating modes:
Only Intel® Optane™ persistent memory 200 series modules are supported.
Intel® Optane™ persistent memory 200 series modules of different capacities cannot be mixed within
or across processor sockets.
Memory slots supported by the Integrated Memory Controller 0 (IMC 0) (memory channels A and B)
of a given processor must be populated before memory slots on other IMCs.
For multiple DIMMs per channel:
o Only one Intel® Optane™ persistent memory 200 series module is supported per memory channel.
o Intel® Optane™ persistent memory 200 series modules are supported in either DIMM slot when
mixed with LRDIMM or 3DS-LRDIMM.
o Intel® Optane™ persistent memory 200 series modules are only supported in DIMM slot 2 (black
slot) when mixed with RDIMM or 3DS-RDIMM.
No support for SDRAM SRx8 DIMM that is populated within the same channel as the Intel® Optane™
persistent memory 200 series module in any operating mode.
Ensure the same DDR4 DIMM type and capacity is used for each DDR4 + Intel® Optane™ persistent
memory 200 series module combination.
Memory mode:
Populate each memory channel with at least one DDR4 to maximize bandwidth.
Intel® Optane™ persistent memory 200 series modules must be populated symmetrically for each
installed processor (corresponding slots populated on either side of the processor).
App Direct mode:
Minimum of one DDR4 DIMM per IMC (IMC 0, IMC 1, IMC 2 and IMC 3) for each installed processor.
Minimum of one Intel® Optane™ persistent memory 200 series module for the board.
Intel® Optane™ persistent memory 200 series modules must be populated symmetrically for each
installed processor (corresponding slots populated on either side of the processor).
