Enterprise Memory

Notes

Memory for the M5000 servers are contained on Memory Boards. Each Memory Board contains eight DIMM sockets that support 1, 2, 4 and 8GB DIMMs. The M5000 server can be configured with two to eight Memory Boards allowing for a maximum system memory capacity of 512GB (using 8GB DIMMs; 64GB per Memory Board). Memory for the M5000 servers can be expanded in two ways--by adding additional Memory Boards (populated with 1, 2, 4 or 8GB DIMMs) and by replacing DIMMs in existing Memory Boards with DIMMs of a higher capacity. DIMMs on the Memory Boards are divided into two groups--A and B. DIMMs in Group A must be the same or larger capacity than the DIMMs in Group B. Group B can have the same number of DIMMs as Group A or it can have zero DIMMs. The DIMMs in each Group should be the identical capacity and ranking across the first four Memory Boards in a server and, if present the DIMMs in each Group should be the identical capacity and ranking across the last four Memory Boards in a server.
