Independent Channel Mode (Optimizer Mode) – PowerEdge M710
In this mode, all three channels are populated with identical memory
modules. This mode permits a larger total memory capacity, but does not
support the reliability features of the other modes. To enable this mode,
select the Optimizer option on the Memory Settings screen of the System
Setup program. See "Memory Settings Screen" on page 130.
A minimal single-channel configuration of one 1 GB memory module per
processor is also supported in this mode.
