Memory
HP ProLiant DL160 G6 (all models)
NOTE: Memory configurations listed do not apply to "Factory Integrated Models".
Standard Memory
4GB (2x2GB) or 6GB (3 x 2GB) depending on model, PC3-10600E Unbuffered UDIMM memory, with ECC.
Maximum Memory
Up to 192GB memory is available with the optional installation of quad-rank PC3-8500R-7 16GB Registered RDIMM memory kits.
NOTE: Charts do not represent all possible memory configurations.
DDR3 memory population guidelines
NOTE: For detailed memory configuration rules and guidelines, please use the Online DDR3 Memory Configuration Tool:

Some DIMM installation guidelines are summarized below:
For servers with eighteen (18) memory slots:
There are three (3) channels per processor; six (6) channels per server
There are three (3) DIMM slots for each memory channel; eighteen (18) total slots
Memory channel 1 consists of the three (3) DIMMs that are closest to the processor
Memory channel 3 consists of the three (3) DIMMs that are furthest from the processor
DIMM slots that are white should be populated first
Do not mix Unbuffered memory (UDIMMs) with Registered memory (RDIMMs)
Do not install DIMMs if the corresponding processor is not installed
If only one processor is installed in a 2CPU system, only half of the DIMM slots are available
To maximize performance, balance the total memory capacity between all installed processors
It is not required, but it is recommended to load the channels similarly if possible
You can only have up to eight (8) ranks installed per channel
You can only install two quad-rank DIMMs per channel
You can only install two UDIMMs per channel; if available, the third slot in the channel must remain empty
Populate DIMMs from heaviest load (quad-rank) to lightest load (single-rank) within a channel
Heaviest load (DIMM with most ranks) within a channel goes furthest from the chipset
No mixing DIMM voltage; all DIMMs must be the same voltage
