Figure 23. Memory socket locations on the system board
Memory channels are organized as follows:
Processor 1
channel 0: memory sockets A1 and A3
channel 1: memory sockets A2 and A4
The following table shows the memory populations and operating frequencies for the supported congurations:

General memory module installation guidelines
Your system supports Flexible Memory Conguration, enabling the system to be congured and run in any valid chipset architectural
conguration. The following are the recommended guidelines for installing memory modules:
• x4 and x8 DRAM-based DIMMs can be mixed.
• Up to two dual- or single-rank ECC UDIMMs can be populated per channel.
• Populate DIMM sockets only if a processor is installed. For single-processor systems, sockets A1 to A4 are available.
• Populate all sockets with white release levers rst, and then all the sockets with black release levers.
