Unbuffered DIMMs (UDIMMs)
The following notes provide information that you must consider when installing
UDIMMs (see "System-board optional-devices connectors" on page 18 for the
location of the DIMM connectors):
v The memory channels run at the fastest common frequency of the installed
v Do not use both UDIMMs and RDIMMs in the same server.
v Using ECC and non-ECC UDIMMs in the server will cause the server to run in
v The UDIMM options that are available for the server are 1 GB, 2 GB, and 4 GB
v You can install a maximum of 16 GB of memory in some server models when
v The server supports up to two single-rank or dual-rank UDIMMs per channel.
v DIMM slots 3 and 6 are not supported when you install UDIMMs in the server.
v The following table lists the DIMM support compatibility.
v The following table lists the supported UDIMM population.

8500 = 8.53 GBps (PC3-1066 SDRAMs, 8-byte primary data bus)
10600 = 10.66 GBps (PC3-1333 SDRAMs, 8-byte primary data bus)
m is the DIMM type
E = Unbuffered DIMM (UDIMM) with ECC (x72-bit module data bus)
R = Registered DIMM (RDIMM)
U = Unbuffered DIMM with no ECC (x64-bit primary data bus)
aa is the CAS latency, in clocks at maximum operating frequency
bb is the JEDEC SPD Revision Encoding and Additions level
cc is the reference design file for the design of the DIMM
d is the revision number of the reference design of the DIMM
Note: To determine the type of a DIMM, see the label on the DIMM. The
information on the label is in the format xxxxx nRxxx PC3-xxxxx-xx-xx-xxx. The
numeral in the sixth numerical position indicates whether the DIMM is single-rank
(n=1) or dual-rank (n=2).
