The minimum memory configuration is one DIMM, installed in DIMM socket 1B (the socket farthest from the processors). However, for optimum performance and
Both DIMM1B and DIMM1A must be populated before any DIMMs are installed. DIMM2B and DIMM2A must be populated in pairs. DIMM3B and DIMM3A must be populated in pairs.
Both DIMMs in a bank must be identical (same manufacturer, CAS latency, number of rows, columns and devices, timing parameters etc.). Although DIMMs within a bank must be identical, the BIOS supports various DIMM sizes and configurations allowing the banks of memory to be different.
