Installing memory

Caution

Use only 667 Mhz compliant, 240-pin,

SDRAM registered ECC, DIMM memory

modules.

Your server supports from 512 MB to 32 GB of total memory with fully-buffered
(FB-DIMM) support. Supported DIMM sizes include 512 MB, 1 GB, 2 GB, and
4 GB.

The BIOS configures the memory controller to run in single-channel,
dual-channel, or four-channel mode. Memory Mirroring and Memory Sparing
can be enabled in the BIOS setup menu (see

“Using the BIOS Setup Utility” on

page 59

).

Caution

All DIMMs installed must be the same

speed. Do not install more than four dual

rank DIMMs or the BIOS will generate a

memory configuration error.

DIMM banks must be populated using the following guidelines:
