RIMM Installation Guidelines
When you add RIMMs, you must install them in matched pairs (pairs of identical
capacity). If only one pair of RIMMs is installed, they must occupy sockets RIMMB_1
and RIMMA_2, and you must install continuity RIMMs (CRIMMs) in sockets
RIMMB_3 and RIMMA_4.
Table 1-1 lists sample memory configurations.
