DIMM identification
IMPORTANT: This server does not support mixing RDIMMs and UDIMMs. Attempting to mix
these two types causes the server to halt during BIOS initialization.
The memory subsystem may be populated with either RDIMMs or UDIMMs, but mixing the two types is not
supported. To determine DIMM characteristics, use the label attached to the DIMM and the following
illustration and table.
Item Description Definition

Rank
1R = Single-rank
2R = Dual-rank
4R = Quad-rank
3
Data width x4 = 4-bit
x8 = 8-bit
4
Memory speed 10600 = 1333-MHz
8500 = 1066-MHz
5
DIMM type R = RDIMM (registered)
E = UDIMM (unbuffered with ECC)
For the latest supported memory information, see the QuickSpecs on the HP website (http://www.hp.com).
Memory configurations
To optimize server availability, the server supports the following AMP modes:
• Advanced ECC—provides the greatest memory capacity for a given DIMM size, while providing up to
4-bit error correction. This mode is the default option for this server.
• Mirrored Memory—provides maximum protection against failed DIMMs. Uncorrectable errors in one
channel are corrected by the mirror channel.
