14.2 Memory
The chipset Memory Controller Hub (MCH) supports fully-buffered DIMM (FBDIMM) technology.
The integrated MCH on the chipset divides the FBDIMMs on the board into two autonomous
sets called branches.
Each branch has two channels. In dual-channel mode, FBDIMMs on adjacent channels work in
lockstep to provide the same cache line data and a combined ECC. In the single-channel mode
only Channel 0 is active.
The BIOS dynamically configures the memory controller in accordance with the available
FBDIMM population and the selected Reliability, Availability, and Serviceability (RAS) mode of
operation.
