Memory Population Guidelines
DIMM slots should be populated in the following order: DIMMA1, DIMMB1, DIMMC1,
DIMMD1 then DIMMA2, DIMMB2, DIMMC2, DIMMD2.
•
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.
•
An odd-number of modules is supported (1 ,3 ,5 ,or 7 modules). However, for
best memory performance, install DIMM modules in pairs.
