Memory Configuration PRIMERGY TX150 S8
The CPU offers 6 Slots for DDR3 Memory Modules organised in 2 Banks and 3 Channels.
Depending on the amount of memory configured you can decide between 4 basic modes of operation (see explanation below).
There are 2 different kinds of DDR3 Memory Modules available: UDIMM and RDIMM
UDIMM / RDIMM offer different functionality. Mix of UDIMM / RDIMM is not alloved.
If 1.5V and 1.35V DIMMs are mixed, the DIMMs will run at 1.5V
Mode Configuration Application
SDDC (chipkill) support any no no yes detect multi-bit errors
Independant Channel 1, 2 or 3 Modules per Bank yes yes yes offers max. flexibility, upgradeability, capacity
Mode use UDIMM modules for lowest cost
Mirrored Channel Mode *) 2 identical Modules / Bank no no yes offers maximum security
3 identical Modules / Bank yes yes yes offers maximum performance and capacity
Rank Sparing Mode *) min. 2 Ranks / Channel no no yes balances security and capacity
*) For the delivery ex works the system will be prepared with dedicated BIOS setting.
Capacity Configuration UDIMM RDIMM
Min. Memory 1 Module 1x2GB 1x4GB
Max. DDR3 memory speed depends on the memory configuration on one memory channel and the speed of the CPU
The memory channel with the lowest speed defines the speed of all CPU channels in the system
DPC DPC DPC DPC DPC DPC DPC DPC DPC
CPU with 1600MHz DDR3 Bus
CPU with 1333MHz DDR3 Bus
CPU with 1066MHz DDR3 Bus
1DPC = 1 DIMM per Channel
2DPC = 2 DIMM per Channel
- The memory sockets on the systemboard offer a color coding:
- A so called Bank consits of 1 memory module on every Channel available on the CPU (examples see below)
up to 3 memory modules connected to Channel A - C
Bank II up to 3 memory modules connected to Channel D - F
- See below and next page for a detailed descriptions of the memory configuration supported.
