System and Memory Configuration Overview
(continued on next page)
The HP Integrity rx2800 i2 supports DDR3 DIMMs with ECC and chip spare protection. The server
supports a maximum of twenty-four DIMM slots. The base server comes standard with 6 DIMM
slots (one 6 slot memory riser, HP part number AM246A). Up to 18 additional DIMM slots can be
added by ordering up to 3 additional of the optional AM246A 6-slot memory riser. A maximum of
384 GB is supported (24×16GB DIMMs or 12 x DRH2800I2/32GB or 12XDRH2800I2Q/32GB kits).
Memory Loading Rules and Performance Guidelines
• Memory must be installed in matched pairs of DIMMs, each pair consisting of DIMMs of the same
type: same capacity/density, same organization, same number of ranks, and same speed.
• Memory may be ordered in kits (pairs) of 4 GB (2×2GB), 8 GB (2×4GB), 16GB (2x8GB), or 32GB
(2X16GB).
• Must have minimum 4 DIMMs installed to support double chip sparing.
• Minimum memory is 4 GB (2×2GB). However, 2GB DIMMs do not support double chip spare.
Anytime 2GB DIMMs are installed in the system, double chip sparing is not supported.
• Maximum memory is 384 GB, using 12 - 32 GB (2×16GB) memory pairs.
• Alternate DIMM pairs between memory risers. If both processor sockets are populated,
alternate DIMMs between processors.
• For best performance, all DIMM slots should be populated with the same size DIMM.
Caution: Refer to your system owner’s manual for detailed
instructions. System parts are sensitive to electrostatic
discharge and can be damaged by the static charge
you may carry. You should wear a grounded wrist strap.
