HP ProLiant ML310 Generation 2 Server User Guide


All DIMMs installed must be the same speed.

BIOS detects the DIMM population and sets the system as follows:

Single-channel mode: DIMMs installed in one channel only.

Dual-channel asymmetric mode: DIMMs installed in both channels but of
unequal capacities per channel.

Dual-channel interleaved mode: DIMMs installed in both channels with
equal channel capacities.

The following table lists some, but not all, possible configurations. For best
performance, HP recommends dual-channel interleaved mode configurations.
