• When you install memory modules with different frequencies into the memory slots for the same

microprocessor, all the memory modules run at the lowest frequency.

• It is recommended that you install the high-frequency memory modules into the memory slots for the

same microprocessor to ensure high performance.

The following table explains the memory module installation rules for servers that have two microprocessors
(CPU1 and CPU2) installed. The “X” mark indicates the memory slots into which the memory modules
should be installed in different situations.

Notes:

• When you install memory modules with different ranks in one channel, start from the farthest memory slot

in the channel and install the memory module that has the most ranks first.

• When you install 1.35 V memory modules and 1.50 V memory modules into the memory slots for the

same microprocessor, all the memory modules run at 1.50 V.

• When you install memory modules with different frequencies into the memory slots for the same

microprocessor, all the memory modules run at the lowest frequency.

• It is recommended that you install the high-frequency memory modules into the memory slots for the

same microprocessor to ensure high performance.
