SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIAL
Recommended Memory Configuration
This section explains the recommended DIMM population order rules for the C220 M3 server.
All DIMMs must be DDR3 DIMMs.
Do not mix:
DIMMs with different sizes or clock rates in a channel
RDIMMs and LRDIMMs
ECC and non-ECC DIMMs
There are blue and black DIMM slots. Populate blue slots first.
When single- and dual-rank DIMMs are populated for 2DPC, always populate the dual-rank
DIMM in the blue DIMM slot and the single-rank DIMM in the black DIMM slot.
Many memory configurations are possible. For best results, follow Table 34 when populating DIMMs.
