System memory
Your system supports DDR4 registered DIMMs (RDIMMs), load reduced DIMMs (LRDIMMs) and DDR4
voltage specifications.
NOTE: MT/s indicates DIMM speed in MegaTransfers per second.
Memory bus operating frequency can be 2133 MT/s, 1866 MT/s, 1600 MT/s, or 1333 MT/s depending on:
• System profile selected (for example, Performance Optimized, Custom, or Dense Configuration
Optimized)
• Maximum supported DIMM frequency of the processors
The system contains eight memory sockets split into two sets of four sockets, one set per processor.
DIMMs in sockets A1 to A4 are assigned to processor 1 and DIMMs in sockets B1 to B4 are assigned to
processor 2. The server supports one DIMM per channel. In each four socket set, the release levers of the
first-to-populate socket are marked white and those of the second socket are marked black. The DIMM
sockets A3, A4, B3 and B4 need to have the memory module inserted 180 ° reverse with regard to the
DIMMS in the A1, A2 and B1, B2 sockets.
