Dimm Identification; Memory Configurations - HP DL370 - ProLiant - G6 Performance User Manual

Dual- and quad-rank DIMMs provide the greatest capacity with the existing memory technology. For
example, if current DRAM technology supports 2-GB single-rank DIMMs, a dual-rank DIMM would be 4-
GB, and a quad-rank DIMM would be 8-GB.

DIMM identification

IMPORTANT:
these two types causes the server to halt during BIOS initialization.
The memory subsystem may be populated with either RDIMMs or UDIMMs, but mixing the two types is not
supported. To determine DIMM characteristics, use the label attached to the DIMM and the following
illustration and table.
