Populating DIMMs in Dual-Processor Systems for Optimal
System Performance
In dual-processor systems, populate DIMMs into DIMM slots starting with processor 0 (P0)
D7, then, alternating between slots associated with processor 0 (P0) and matching slots for
processor 1 (P1). Fill the black slots, and then the white slots, as shown in the following figure.
The following table describes the proper order in which to install DIMMs in a dual-processor
system using the numbered callouts in the above figure, and the DIMM slot labels (D0 through
D11).
Population Order Processor/DIMM Slot
Populate black slots first in the following order: 1. P0/D7
2. P1/D7
3. P0/D4
4. P1/D4
5. P0/D9
6. P0/D2
7. P1/D9
