sections below detail these advanced memory configurations.

1. Choosing the Memory Mode

Consult this overview when determining what type of memory
protection is best for your needs.
Standard Memory (Advanced ECC)
Provides Advanced ECC protection, which protects against
single-bit errors and some multi-bit errors
Maximizes system memory capacity
Online Spare

memory
Does not protect against multi-bit errors
Online spare bank must match the largest DIMM bank used in
the server
Downtime must be scheduled to replace failed memory
Single-Board Mirrored Memory
Provides a higher lever of memory protection than online
spare when using only one memory board
Provides protection against both single-bit and multi-bit
errors
Supports up to 8 GB of system memory and 8 GB of
redundant memory using 2-GB DIMMs
Downtime must be scheduled to replace failed memory
Hot-Plug Mirrored Memory
