Mem ory options
IMPORTANT: This server does not support mixing RDIMMs and UDIMMs. Attempting to mix these two types c auses the server to halt during BIOS initialization.
The memo s ry subsystem in this server can support RDIMMs or UDIMMs. Both types are referred to as hen the information applies to both types. When specified as RDIMM or UDIMM, the information applies to that type only. All memory installed in the server must be the same type.
The server supports the following DIMM speeds:
• Single- and dual-rank PC3-10600 (DDR-1333) DIMMs operating at 1333 and 1066 MHz
• Quad-rank PC3-8500 (DDR-1067) DIMMs operating at 1066 MHz
Hardware options installation 18
Depending on the processor model, the number of DIMMs installed, and whether UDIMMs or RDIMMs are installed, the memory clock speed may be reduced to 1066 or 800 MHz. For more information on the effect of DIMM slot population, see "General DIMM slot population guidelines (on page

General DIMM slot population guidelines
Observe the following guidelines for all AMP modes:
• Populate DIMM slots for a processor only if the processor is installed.
• To maximize performance in multi-processor configurations, distribute the total memory capacit between all pro cessors as evenly as possible. y
• Do not mix Unbuffered and Registered PC3 DIMMs.
• Each channel supports up to two Unbuffered DIMMs.
Hardware options installation 21
• If quad-rank DIMMs are installed for a processor, a maximum of two DIMMs can be installed on each channel for that processor.
If a channel conta ins quad-rank DIMMs, the quad-rank DIMM must be installed first on that channel.
DIMM speeds are supported as indicated in the following table.
