Appendix B: Memory configuration options

Maximum performance

Maximum performance is the default memory configuration and provides the best performance. With four memory boards installed, the BIOS configures memory as four-way interleaved, across all memory boards. With less than four memory boards installed, the BIOS attempts to configure two-way interleaving. If memory cannot be configured for two-way interleaving, the BIOS defaults to one-wayinterleaving. This memory mode allows sparing configuration but does not support any memory board hot-plug operations.

To configure memory to maximum performance:

1Do either option below:

• Run BIOS setup. See “Entering BIOS setup” on page 96.

aDuring system bootup, enter the System Options Menu. See “System options menu” on page 90.

2Use the up and down arrow keys to select the Memory menu, then press Enter. The Memory menu appears.

3Use the up and down arrow keys to select Configure Memory RAS and Performance, then press Enter. The Configure Memory RAS and Performance menu appears.
