Installing a memory module

The following guidelines must be followed when memory modules
are being added or replaced:
Up to 192GB, using PC3-8500R DDR3 Registered (RDIMM)
•
memory, operating at 800MHz when populated at 2 DIMMs
per Channel in 12 slots
• Up to 128GB, using PC3-10600R DDR3 Registered (RDIMM)
memory, operating at 800MHz when fully populated in 16 slots
• Up to 48GB, using PC3-10600E DDR3 Unbuffered (UDIMM)
memory, operating at 1333MHz when populated at 2 DIMMs
per Channel in 12 slots
Sixteen DIMMs, eight DIMM sockets per processor, three per
•
first two channels and third channel with only two
Supported configuration:
•
o One DIMM per processor: 8A for processor 1; 8A for processor 2
o Three DIMMs per processor: 8A, 5B, 2C for processor 1; 8A, 5B,
2C for processor 2
o Six DIMMs per processor: 8A, 5B, 2C, 7D, 4E, 1F for processor 1;
8A, 5B, 2C, 7D, 4E, 1F for processor 2
o DIMM population order processor socket 1: 8A, 5B, 2C, 7D, 4E,
1F, 6G, 3H
o DIMM population order processor socket 2: 8A, 5B, 2C, 7D, 4E,
1F, 6G, 3H
Figure 14 Population Order of DIMM Sockets
To install the memory module:
1. Align the notch on the bottom edge of the memory module with
the keyed surface of the DIMM slot and then fully press the
memory module into the slot until the holding clips snap back in
place. (Step in Figure 15)
Figure 15 Installing a Memory Module
NOTE: A DIMM blank should be installed over any
empty DIMM sockets in order to keep proper thermal
cooling.
CAUTION: DIMM slots are structured to ensure proper
installation. If you insert a DIMM but it does not fit easily
into the slot, you may have inserted it incorrectly. Reverse
the orientation of the DIMM and insert it again.
CAUTION: DIMMs can be damaged by improper
handling. Always use an anti-static wrist strap and
grounding mat, and discharge static electricity before
touching DIMMs.

Installing a processor

To install the processor:
CAUTION: Failure to completely open the processor
locking lever prevents the processor from seating during
installation, leading to hardware damage.
1. Open the processor locking lever and the processor socket
retaining bracket. Do not remove the processor socket cover.
