Hardware Installation

The four DDR DIMM sockets on the system board are divided into 2

channels:

Channel A - DDR 1 and DDR 3

Channel B - DDR 2 and DDR 4

The system board supports the following memory interface.

Single Channel (SC)

Data will be accessed in chunks of 64 bits (8B) from the memory

channels.

Dual Channel (DC)

Data will be accessed in chunks of 128 bits from the memory

channels. Dual channel provides better system performance because

it doubles the data transfer rate.

• DIMMs are on the same channel.

• DIMMs in a channel can be identical or

completely different. However, we highly

recommend using identical DIMMs.

• Not all slots need to be populated.

• DIMMs of the same memory configura-

tion are on different channels.

Single Channel

Dual Channel

The table below shows the DIMM sockets that must be populated

with DIMMs for single or dual channel interface. We strongly

recommend that you strictly follow the memory configurations below.

Installing DDR DIMMs other than the recommended configurations

may cause system boot failure.
