Memory module installation

The following notes describe the types of DIMMs that the node supports and other information that you must
consider when you install DIMMs.
• Confirm that the node supports the DIMM that you are installing (see
serverproven/
).
• When you install or remove DIMMs, the node configuration information changes. When you restart the
node, the system displays a message that indicates that the memory configuration has changed. You can
use the Setup utility to view the node configuration information.
• Install higher capacity (ranked) DIMMs first, following the population sequence for the memory mode
being used.
• The node supports only industry-standard double-data-rate 4 (DDR4), 2666 MT/s, PC4-21300 (single-rank
or dual-rank), unbuffered or synchronous dynamic random-access memory (SDRAM) dual inline memory
modules (DIMMs) with error correcting code (ECC).
• Do not mix RDIMMs, LRDIMMs and 3DS DIMMs in the same node.
• The maximum operating speed of the node is determined by the slowest DIMM in the node.
• If you install a pair of DIMMs in DIMM connectors 1 and 3, the size and speed of the DIMMs that you
install in DIMM connectors 1 and 3 must match each other. However, they do not have to be the same
size and speed as the DIMMs that are installed in DIMM connectors 2 and 4.
• You can use compatible DIMMs from various manufacturers in the same pair.
• The specifications of a DDR4 DIMM are on a label on the DIMM, in the following format.
