5-6 Installing Memory

!

CAUTION! Exercise extreme care when installing or removing DIMM modules to prevent any possible damage.

1. Memory support

The X7DBT-T/X7DBT-INF has eight 240-pin DIMM sockets that can support up to 32 GB of ECC FBD (Fully Buffered DIMM) DDR2-667/533 SDRAM (for a total of 64 GB in the system). The memory scheme is interleaved, so you must populate two slots at a time, beginning with slot 1A and 2A, then slots 3A and 4A and so on. See chart below for optimizing your DIMM installation.

2. Installing memory modules

Insert each memory module vertically. Pay attention to the notches along the bottom of the module to prevent inserting it incorrectly. Gently press down on the DIMM module until it snaps into place in the slot (see Figure 5-3).

Figure 5-3. DIMM Installation

To Install: Insert module vertically and press down until it snaps into place. Pay attention to the bottom

notches.

To Remove: Use your thumbs to gently push each release tab outward to free the DIMM from the

slot.

Optimized DIMM Configurations

	Branch 0				Branch 1
Number of	Bank 1		Bank 2		Bank 3		Bank 4
DIMMs	(Channel 0)		(Channel 1)		(Channel 2)		(Channel 3)
2 DIMMs	1A	---	2A	---	---	---	---	---
4 DIMMs	1A	---	2A	---	3A	---	4A	---
6 DIMMs	1A	1B	2A	2B	3A	---	4A	---
8 DIMMs	1A	1B	2A	2B	3A	3B	4A	4B

Notes: i. DIMM slot# specified = DIMM slot to be populated; “---“ = DIMM slot not to be populated. ii. Both FBD 533 MHz and 667MHz DIMMs are supported; however, you need to use memory modules of the same speed and type. iii. Interleaved memory is supported when pairs of DIMM modules are installed. To optimize memory performance, please populate pairs of memory modules in both Branch 0 and Branch 1. iv. For memory to work properly, you need to follow the restrictions listed above.
