Internal System Components Configuration and Installation

Procedures

This section covers separately-orderable components that must be installed for your server to operate. It
also covers replacing these components and where relevant, such as with memory DIMMs, how to
configure them.

You install your separately-orderable DIMMs and processors on the Intel® Server Board S2400EP4,
which is the baseboard for this server.

NOTE: Be sure to read the information about the configuration rules and memory feature options in the
Intel® Server Board S2400EP4 Family Technical Product Specification e before you begin.

3.3.1 Configuring Memory DIMMs

The memory DIMM slots are located in two separate banks on the S2400EP4 server board. Detailed
information about the memory subsystem in the CG1200 server can be found in the Intel® Server Board
S2400EP4 Family Technical Product Specification located on the Kontron support website

http://us.kontron.com/support

(search for CG1200, click on Product Downloads, then Technical Info).

3.3.2 Supported Memory

The Intel® Server Board S2400EP4 supports eight DIMM slots with three memory channels for each
processor. There is one DIMM slot per channel for channels A, B, D, and E and two DIMM slots per
channel for channels C and F. Up to eight DIMMs can be used with dual-processor sockets giving a
maximum memory capacity of 256 GB.

The server board supports DDR3 800, DDR3 1066, DDR3 1333, and DDR3 1600 memory transfer rates.
Memory modules of mixed speed are supported by automatic selection of the highest common frequency
of all memory modules.
