DIMM Blank Installation Requirements

In order to maintain adequate thermal levels, you MUST install DIMM blanks in the
appropriate DIMM slots as described below:
•
If you have only one processor installed, all CPU 1 DIMM slots must either have a
DIMM or DIMM blank installed. You may either leave the CPU 2 DIMM slots
empty or store extra blanks in the blue DIMM slots.
•
If you have both processors installed, all blue DIMM slots in CPU 1 and CPU 2
must either have a DIMM or DIMM blank installed. You may store extra DIMM
blanks in any of the unused CPU 1 DIMM slots.
