General memory module installation guidelines

To ensure optimal performance of your system, observe the following general guidelines when configuring your system memory.
If your system's memory configuration fails to observe these guidelines, your system might not boot, stop responding during
memory configuration, or operate with reduced memory.
The memory bus may operate at speeds of 4800 MT/s, 4400 MT/s or 4000 MT/s depending on the following factors:
● System profile selected (for example, Performance, Performance Per Watt Optimized (OS), or Custom [can be run at high
speed or lower])
● Maximum supported DIMM speed of the processors
● Maximum supported speed of the DIMMs
NOTE:
MT/s indicates DIMM speed in MegaTransfers per second.
● All DIMMs must be DDR5.
● Memory mixing is not supported for:
○ X4 and X8 DRAM memory modules
● If memory modules with different speeds are installed, they operate at the speed of the slowest installed memory module(s).
● Populate memory module sockets only if a processor is installed.
● For single-processor systems, sockets A1 to A6 are available.
● A minimum of 1 DIMM must be populated for each installed processor.

NOTE:
For best performance, populate all memory channels equally.
NOTE:
DDR4 DIMMs are not supported in the C6615 system.
