Note that although the maximum speed at which the memory channel runs on the HS22 is 1333 MHz, this
depends on a combination of three items:
Processor memory speed: The processor has a maximum memory speed of 1333, 1066, or 800 MHz

depending on the processor model. Only the X (Advanced) range of Xeon 5500 and 5600 series
processors supports a maximum memory channel speed of 1333 MHz. See the processor options
(Table 5) for the maximum memory speed.
Memory DIMM: Most but not all DIMMs listed in the previous tables support running at 1333 MHz.

Some only run at 1066 MHz. This is noted in the description of the DIMM.
Number of DIMMs installed: The HS22 implements memory so that 2 DIMMs are on each of the three

memory channels of the processor. if only 1 DIMM is installed to each channel (that is, 3 DIMMs per
processor) then the DIMMs can operate at the lower of the DIMM rated speed and processor memory
channel rated speed, up to 1333 MHz. However at 2 DIMMs per channel (6 DIMMs per processor),
memory can only operate at 1333 MHz if Xeon 5600 X (Advanced) range of processors (models
X56nn) are installed. All other processors (all 5500, L56nn, and E56nn) cannot drive the memory
channel at 1333 MHz if there are 2 DIMMs per channel.
In summary, to ensure DIMMs operate at 1333 MHz, select a Xeon X56nn processor and use DIMMs that
are rated at 1333 MHz. All DIMMs in the proceeding table support running at 2 DIMMs per channel at
1333 MHz.
