Page 15: Raid Support
The server board provides eight DIMM sockets across two branches, and each branch has two channels. The DIMM configuration is shown in the following figure. Channel A Channel C Channel B Channel D Branch 0 Branch 1 Figure 8. DIMM Configuration Diagram MAXDATA Server PLATINUM 1500 IR M6... -
Page 16: Memory Sparing And Mirroring
DIMMs must be populated in pairs across consecutive channels starting with the lowest numbered slot in each channel. Slots A1 and B1 are paired, followed by slots C1 and D1. For performance reasons, when configuring four DIMMs, DIMM pairs A2 and B2 should never be populated before DIMM pair C1 and D1. -
