Memory options

IMPORTANT:

This server does not support mixing LRDIMMs, RDIMMs, or UDIMMs. Attempting

to mix any combination of these DIMMs can cause the server to halt during BIOS initialization.

The memory subsystem in this server can support LRDIMMs, RDIMMs, or UDIMMs.

UDIMMs represent the basic type of memory module and offer lower latency and (relatively) low power

consumption, but are limited in capacity.

RDIMMs offer larger capacities than UDIMMs and include address parity protection.

LRDIMMs support higher densities than single-rank and dual-rank RDIMMs. This support enables you to
install more high capacity DIMMs, resulting in higher system capacities and higher bandwidth.

All types are referred to as DIMMs when the information applies to all types. When specified as LRDIMM,
RDIMM, or UDIMM, the information applies to that type only. All memory installed in the server must be of

the same type.
The server supports the following DIMM speeds:

Single-rank and dual-rank PC3-10600 (DDR-1333) UDIMMs operating at up to 1333 MT/s

Single-rank and dual-rank PC3-12800 (DDR-1600) UDIMMs operating at up to 1600 MT/s

Single-rank and dual-rank PC3-10600 (DDR-1333) RDIMMs operating at up to 1333 MT/s

Single-rank and dual-rank PC3-12800 (DDR-1600) RDIMMs operating at up to 1600 MT/s
