Technical white paper | HP Z1 G2 Workstation
Memory configurations
and optimization
Below is an overview of the memory configurations for the HP Z1 G2
Workstation and recommendations to optimize performance.
Supported memory modules
The types of memory supported on a Z1 G2 are:
• 4 GB PC3-14900U 1866MHz DDR3 Unbuffered non-ECC DIMMs
• 2 GB, 4 GB and 8 GB PC3-14900E 1866MHz DDR3 Unbuffered ECC DIMMs
• Single and dual rank 2 Gb and 4 Gb based DIMMs
See the
Processor and memory support
Table 2.
Processor
Intel® Core™ i3-4130
Intel Core i5-4570
Intel Xeon® E3-12xx v3
* If ECC memory is added to the system, the ECC function is disabled and the DIMMs will appear to the system as non-ECC memory.
Platform capabilities
Maximum capacity: 32 GB
• Z1 G2 has a total of 4 memory sockets
• 2 channels with 2 sockets per channel
Speed
• 1866 MHz and 1600 MHz DIMMs are supported
• Memory will operate at the speed of the slowest rated installed processor or DIMM
Memory features
ECC is supported on Unbuffered ECC DIMMs.
• Single-bit errors are automatically corrected
• Multi-bit errors are detected and will cause the system to immediately reboot and halt with an F1 prompt error message
Although HP does support non-ECC memory on this platform as a lower cost option, it should be noted that non-ECC
memory does not detect or correct single-bit or multi-bit errors which can cause instability or corruption of data in the
platform. See Memory Technology White Paper for more information.
