Number of DIMMs 4 8 DIMM connections 1, 3, 5, 7 1, 3, 5, 7, 2, 4, 6, 8 - Online-spare memory disables a failed pair of DIMMs from the system configuration and activates an online-spare pair of DIMMs to replace the failed pair of DIMMs. For an online-spare pair of DIMMs to be activated, you must have installed an additional pair of DIMMs of the same speed, type, size (or larger), and technology as the failed pair of DIMMs. When you use online-spare memory, consider the following information: - You cannot enable online-spare memory while the computer is operating in mirroring mode. - The minimum memory configuration is two double-rank DIMMs installed in branch 0, DIMM connection 1 (in channel 0) and DIMM connection 3 (in channel 1). - The spare pair of DIMMs must be the same speed, type, size (or larger), and technology as the failed pair of DIMMs. - Branch 0 and branch 1 operate independently. v The following notes apply when the computer operates in the non-mirroring mode (normal mode). - The computer comes with two 512 MB DIMMs installed in DIMM connectors 1 and 3. The second pair of DIMMs must be installed in DIMM connectors 5 and 7. The third pair of DIMMs must be installed in DIMM connectors 2 and 4. The fourth pair of DIMMs must be installed in DIMM connectors 6 and 8. - DIMMs must be installed in matched pairs. For example, the DIMMs in DIMM connector 1 and 3 must be identical to each other, but do not have to be identical to the DIMMs in DIMM connector 5 and 7. But the DIMMs in DIMM connector 5 and 7 must be identical to each other. The DIMMs in each pair must be the same size, speed, type, and technology as each other but do not have to match the other pairs. You can mix compatible DIMMs from various manufacturers. See the following table for the DIMM configuration upgrade sequence non-mirroring mode (normal mode). The following table shows the DIMM configuration upgrade sequence (non-mirroring mode).
