Memory Mirroring
The memory mirroring feature writes the same data into two groups of DIMMs corresponding with each other between
memory channels (channels 0 and 1) to provide data redundancy.
IMPORTANT: The memory mirroring feature uses channels 0 and 1. In memory mirroring
configuration, the memory channel 2 of each CPU (CPU1-DIMM3/6, CPU2-DIMM3/6) is
disabled.

NOTE: The operating system only recognizes a half of the total physical capacity.
The memory mirroring feature can be used under the following conditions:
 Install memory devices in two memory sockets configuring a mirror set.
 All the installed memory devices should have the same capacity.
 Run SETUP (see Chapter 4), change parameters appropriately in the [Mirror] menu selected as shown below, save
the settings and exit from SETUP.
