Populating DIMM Sockets
The system will automatically operate in single channel mode, dual
channel Asymmetric mode, depending on how the DIMMs are
installed.
The system will operate in single channel mode if the DIMM
sockets are populated in one channel only.
The system will operate in dual channel Asymmetric mode if the
total memory capacity of the DIMMs in Channel A is not equal to
the total memory capacity of the DIMMs in Channel B.
There are Four DIMM sockets on the system board, with two sockets
per channel.
