Server Features

The ProLiant DL740 server has five memory cartridges, each consisting of eight
DIMMs. In each memory cartridge, similar DIMMs are installed in bank pairs (1+2,
3+4, 5+6, 7+8) for memory interleaving to increase performance.

Basic memory features include:

• ECC memory with single-bit and MBE correction and detection down to the

failed DIMM level

• Support for standard ECC 133-MHz registered SDRAM
• Driverless hot-replace functionality
• Expandability to 40 GB of Hot Plug RAID Memory using industry-standard

PC133 SDRAM DIMMs (32 GB of addressable memory)

• Support for up to eight memory banks, with each bank consisting of five DIMMs

(one DIMM is for redundancy):

— Each DIMM of a given bank must be of the same size, type, and speed.

— DIMMs are populated in bank pairs for interleaved operation to increase

performance.

NOTE: The DIMM size, type, and speed are defined by the DIMM part number. All
DIMMs in a bank must have the same part number, as indicated by the following example:

123456-12x

All numbers except the last (designated by x) must match for DIMMs to be considered
the same.
