Memory Load Order
When installing memory, use a minimum of one pair in the 8-DIMM memory carrier, and one quad
in the 24-DIMM memory carrier, of like-sized DIMMs. Insert additional DIMMs into the memory
carriers in the next available pair or quad, in order of capacity from largest to smallest.
Install DIMMs into the appropriate slots on the memory carrier board; each slot has a unique ID.
Use Figure 9 and Figure 10 to determine where to install DIMMs on the memory carrier board.
CAUTION: Do not mix DIMM sizes or types within a pair or quad. Load DIMM pairs and quads
in order of capacity from largest to smallest. For example, if you have a quad of 2 GB DIMMs
and a quad of 1 GB DIMMs, install the quad of 2 GB DIMMs first.
Failure to observe these cautions results in system degradation or failure
8-DIMM Memory Carrier Load Order
The 8-DIMM memory carrier has two sides labeled side 0 and side 1, each of which contains a
memory carrier board. The 8-DIMM memory carrier can contain one to four pairs of memory. Pairs
of memory are divided equally between the two sides of the memory carrier. For example, if you
have two pairs of memory to install, load two DIMMs in slots 0A and 0B of side 0, and load two
DIMMs in slots 0A and 0B of side 1.
Table 6 lists the 8-DIMM memory carrier load order.

The DIMM slot IDS are the same for both 8-DIMM memory carrier boards. Unique slots are identified
within the carrier by the side in which they reside. For example, slot 0A is identified as slot 0A,
side 0; or slot 0A, side 1.
Figure 9 shows the DIMM slot IDs for the 8-DIMM memory carrier board.
