• The memory speed of each channel depends on the memory configuration:

For single- or dual-rank memory modules:
• One memory module per channel supports up to 1333 MHz.
• Two memory modules per channel support up to 1333 MHz.
• Three memory modules per channel support up to 800 MHz.

• If memory modules with different speeds are installed, they will operate at

the speed of the slowest installed memory module(s).

Mode-Specific Guidelines

There are two memory channels with each channel supporting a maximum of

two UDIMMs.
Table 3-1 show sample memory configurations that follow the appropriate

memory guidelines stated in this section. The samples show identical

memory-module configurations and the physical and available memory totals.

The tables do not show mixed or quad-rank memory-module configurations,

nor do they address the memory speed considerations of any configuration.
