Support
The H8DAE-2 supports single or dual-channel, DDR2-667/533/400 registered ECC
SDRAM.
Both interleaved and non-interleaved memory are supported, so you may populate
any number of DIMM slots (see note on previous page and charts on following
page). The CPU2 DIMM slots can only be accessed when two CPUs are installed
(however, the CPU2 DIMM slots are not required to be populated when two CPUs
are installed).
Populating two adjacent slots at a time with memory modules of the same size and
type will result in interleaved (128-bit) memory, which is faster than non-interleaved
(64-bit) memory. See charts on following page.
Optimizing memory performance
If two processors are installed, it is better to stagger pairs of DIMMs across both
sets of CPU DIMM slots, e.g. fi rst populate CPU1 slots 1A and 1B, then CPU2 slots
1A, and 1B, then the next two CPU1 slots, etc. This balances the load over both
CPUs to optimize performance.
Maximum memory: up to 64 GB in a dual-CPU confi guration. If only one CPU is
installed, maximum supported memory is halved (32 GB).

To Install:
Insert module vertically
and press down until it
snaps into place. The
release tabs should
close - if they do not
you should close them
yourself.
To Remove:
Use your thumbs to
gently push each re-
lease tab outward to
release the DIMM from
the slot.

Note the notch in the slot and on the bottom of the DIMM.
These prevent the DIMM from being installed incorrectly.
