Memory Support
The X10SAE supports up to 32GB of Unbuffered (UDIMM) DDR3 ECC/non-
(See Chpt. 2)
ECC 1600/1333/1066 MHz in 4 memory slots. Populating these DIMM modules
with a pair of memory modules of the same type and same size will result in
Off (Disabled)
interleaved memory, which will improve memory performance.
Pins 1-2 (Enabled)
Note: For memory optimization, use only DIMM modules that have been validated by Supermicro.
Pins 1-2 (Enabled)

Memory Population Guidelines
When installing memory modules, the DIMM slots should be populated in the fol-
lowing order: DIMMA2, DIMMB2, then DIMMA1, DIMMB1.
•
Always use DDR3 DIMM modules of the same size, type and speed.
•
Mixed DIMM speeds can be installed. However, all DIMMs will run at the speed
of the slowest DIMM.
