Installing Memory
Installing Memory
1. Insert each memory module vertically into its slot, paying attention to the
notch along the bottom of the module to prevent inserting the module
incorrectly (see Figure 5-3).
2. Install to slots P1/DIMM1A, P1/DIMM2A, etc. For best performance always
use the same memory type and speed in the same memory bank. See
support information below.
3. Gently press down on the memory module until it snaps into place.
4. With two CPUs installed, repeat step 2 to populate the CPU2 DIMM slots.
Notes:
•
See the table below for memory sizes for the various memory types..
Memory Type
RDIMM
UDIMM
LRDIMM
•
It is highly recommended that you remove the power cord from the system before
installing or changing memory modules.
•
Please refer to our web site for memory that has been tested on the
X9DRT-P/PT/PIBF serverboard.
Memory Support
The X9DRT-P/PT/PIBF serverboard supports up to 1 TB of 240-pin Registered
(RDIMM)/Load Reduced (LRDIMM) ECC or Unbuffered (UDIMM) ECC/Non-ECC
DDR3-1866/1600/1333/1066/800 MHz speed, 4-channel memory in sixteen (16)
slots. For the latest memory updates, please refer to our website a at
supermicro.com/products/motherboard.
Populating two 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.
Note: Check the Supermicro website (www.supermicro.com) for the latest memory
support information.
