Installing Memory Modules The following notes describe the types of dual inline memory modules (DIMMs) that the blade server supports and other information that you must consider when installing DIMMs: • The system board contains four DIMM connectors. If an optional Intel® Blade Server Memory and I/O Expansion Blade is installed on your blade server, it provides four additional DIMM connectors. The server supports two-way memory interleaving. • The DIMM options that are available for the blade server are 512 MB, 1 GB, 2 GB and 4 GB. Depending on the memory configuration set in blade server BIOS, the blade server can support a minimum of 1 GB and a maximum of 16 GB of system memory in the system board and a maximum of 32 GB of system memory when an optional Intel® Blade Server Memory and I/O Expansion Blade is installed. • For blade servers with no Memory and I/O Expansion Blade, when you install memory, you must install a pair of matched DIMMs. Install the DIMMs in the following order: Pair First Second DIMM connectors 1 (J141) and 3 (J143) 2 (J142) and 4 (J144) • To set up a non-mirrored memory configuration for a blade server with a Memory and I/O Expansion Blade, when you install memory, you must install a pair of matched DIMMs. Install the DIMMs in the following order: Pair First Second Third Fourth DIMM connectors 1 (system board J141) and 3 (system board J143) 1 (Memory and I/O Expansion Blade J18) and 3 (Memory and I/O Expansion Blade J20) 2 (system board J142) and 4 (system board J144) 2 (Memory and I/O Expansion Blade J19) and 4 (Memory and I/O Expansion Blade J21) • To set up a mirrored memory configuration for a blade server with a Memory and I/O Expansion Blade, when you install memory, you must install matched DIMMs in groups of four. Install the DIMMs in the following order: Pair DIMM connectors First 1 (system board J141) and 3 (system board J143) 1 (Memory and I/O Expansion Blade J18) and 3 (Memory and I/O Expansion Blade J20) 22 Intel® Server Compute Blade SBXD132 Installation and User's Guide

Installing Memory Modules
The following notes describe the types of dual inline memory modules (DIMMs) that the
blade server supports and other information that you must consider when installing
DIMMs:
The system board contains four DIMM connectors. If an optional Intel
®
Blade Server
Memory and I/O Expansion Blade is installed on your blade server, it provides four
additional DIMM connectors. The server supports two-way memory interleaving.
The DIMM options that are available for the blade server are 512 MB, 1 GB, 2 GB
and 4 GB. Depending on the memory configuration set in blade server BIOS, the
blade server can support a minimum of 1 GB and a maximum of 16 GB of system
memory in the system board and a maximum of 32 GB of system memory when an
optional Intel
®
Blade Server Memory and I/O Expansion Blade is installed.
For blade servers with no Memory and I/O Expansion Blade, when you install
memory, you must install a pair of matched DIMMs. Install the DIMMs in the
following order:
To set up a non-mirrored memory configuration for a blade server with a Memory and
I/O Expansion Blade, when you install memory, you must install a pair of matched
DIMMs. Install the DIMMs in the following order:
To set up a mirrored memory configuration for a blade server with a Memory and I/O
Expansion Blade, when you install memory, you must install matched DIMMs in
groups of four. Install the DIMMs in the following order:
