R710 with 9 x 2GB ram
Hi
I have 9 x 2GB memory how do i put in each slot? My server with dual processor.
My current config is
CPU 1 : A1, A4, A2, A5, A3
CPU 2 : B1, B4, B2, B5
When i start up BIOS shows one slot is disabled though. Read owner's manual but still not clear.
Thanks

Some of the new systems are a little finicky when it comes to RAM allocation for the CPUs. Do as the other post suggests. Either add an additional DIMM or take one of them out.
Also, make sure that all of the RAM is either buffered or unbuffered.

okay so the sequence is correct?
I have another R710 with 4x8GB dual processor but still have not figure out how dimm works though.
i filled dimm A1,A4,B1,B4 bios prompting B1,B4 both disabled. Not sure why?
Appreciate the help.

saw this thread last post mem config table http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/servers/f/956/t/19581999
I should fill dimms A1,A4,B1,B4 instead?

The memory on each CPU should be equal. So either buy one memory strip more or remove one.
