X10QBi Platform User's Manual
SMI Slot P1M1
Installing Memory Cards on
the Baseboard
1. The X10QBi baseboard supports
eight memory slots for eight X10QBi-
MEM1 or MEM2 memory cards with
two memory cards per CPU. Please
refer the table below.
2. Each X10QBi-MEM1 memory card
supports up to 12 modules of DDR3
ECC RDIMM/LRDIMM memory of
up to 1600 MHz, and each X10QBi-
MEM2 memory card supports up to
12 modules of DDR4 ECC RDIMM/
LRDIMM memory up to 1866 MHz.

3. With eight MEM1 or MEM2 memory cards installed on the baseboard, the
X10QBi supports up to 96 modules with a total size of 6TB supported.
4. When installing a DIMM module on a memory card, be sure to press the
module straight down into the slot until it is properly seated and the PRES-
ENT_LED is on. Also, be sure to always install the DIMM modules in the blue
slots rst, starting with DIMMA1/DIMMB1/DIMMC1/DIMMD1.
Installing Memory Cards to the Baseboard
After populating DIMMs on the memory cards, follow the table below to install the
memory cards that are populated with DIMM modules on the baseboard:
CPUs and the Corresponding Memory Cards

CPU 3 SMI Slot P3M1 SMI Slot P3M1 + SMI Slot P3M2
CPU 4 SMI Slot P4M1 SMI Slot P4M1 + SMI Slot P4M2
Note: To optimize system performance, we recommend that the 4-CPU
conguration be used in your system (either with full-loading of 96 memory
modules installed or half-loading with 48 modules installed.) Please also
note that the 1-CPU conguration has not been validated by Supermicro.
Please refer to pages 1-6 to 1-9 in Chapter 1 for details on memory cards.
