Page 9 highlights

DDR DIMM Modules: DDRA1-2, DDRB1-2 Supports up to four DDR DIMMs(two DIMMs per channel), single-sided and/ or double-sided. For Dual Channel Operation, DIMMs must be populated in identical pairs. It has to be the combination of DDRA1+DDRB1 (Blue DIMMs) or DDRA2+DDRB2 (white DIMMs). Dual Channel Guidelines Matched DIMM configuration in each channel ─ Same Density (128MB, 256MB, 512MB, 1GB, etc.) ─ Same DRAM technology (128M-bit, 256M-bit, or 512M-bit) ─ Same DRAM bus width (x8 or x16) ─ Both either single-sided or dual-sided Matched in both Channel A and Channel B memory channels ─ Populate symmetrical memory slots Optimal platform performance with Dual Channel, DDR400, matched DIMMs ─ Fully loaded configurations can be single or double sided DIMMs ─ Lightly loaded configurations need to be double sided DIMMs When not using DDR400, best performance obtained with ─ Symmetrical DIMM population and matched double-sided DIMMs ─ Lightly loaded configuration 7

DDR DIMM Modules: DDRA1-2, DDRB1-2
Supports up to four DDR DIMMs(two DIMMs per channel), single-sided and/ or
double-sided.
For Dual Channel Operation, DIMMs must be populated in identical pairs.
It
has to be the combination of DDRA1+DDRB1 (Blue DIMMs) or DDRA2+DDRB2
(white DIMMs).
Dual Channel Guidelines
Matched DIMM configuration in each channel
Same Density (128MB, 256MB, 512MB, 1GB, etc.)
Same DRAM technology (128M-bit, 256M-bit, or 512M-bit)
Same DRAM bus width (x8 or x16)
Both either single-sided or dual-sided
Matched in both Channel A and Channel B memory channels
Populate symmetrical memory slots
Optimal platform performance with Dual Channel, DDR400, matched DIMMs
Fully loaded configurations can be single or double sided DIMMs
Lightly loaded configurations need to be double sided DIMMs
When not using DDR400, best performance obtained with
Symmetrical DIMM population and matched double-sided DIMMs
Lightly loaded configuration
