7.6 Memory Speed Limitations

The memory frequency is determined by a variety of inputs:

Speed of the DIMMs

Speed supported by the processors

Configuration of the DIMMs
For quad-rank DIMMs mixed with single- or dual-rank DIMMs, the quad-rank DIMM must be in the slot
with the white ejection tabs (the first DIMM slot in each channel). There is no requirement for the
order of single-rank and dual-rank DIMMs.
Table 14 shows the memory populations and the maximum frequency achievable for each
configuration.

7.7 Sparing

The Intel Xeon processor 5500 series does not support memory sparing, but the Intel Xeon processor
5600 series does support memory sparing.
