To enable memory mirroring, you must install DIMMs in sets of four, one pair in
each memory card. All DIMMs in each set must be the same size and type.
Memory cards 1 and 2 mirror each other, cards 3 and 4 mirror each other,
memory cards 5 and 6 mirror each other, and cards 7 and 8 mirror each other.
Install DIMMs in the sequence shown in the following table.
