  • Page 66: Memory Subsystem Architecture

    Qualified memory is performance-tuned for ProLiant and BladeSystem servers and provides future enhanced support through Active Health and manageability software. Persistent memory combines the performance of memory with the persistence of traditional storage. NVDIMMs are DIMMs that provide persistent memory and install in standard DIMM slots. NVDIMM-Ns are NVDIMMs that combine DRAM with NAND flash memory, backing up the DRAM contents to flash memory on power loss and restoring from NAND flash memory to DRAM on power on.
  • Page 67: Dimm Ranks

    This multi-channel architecture provides enhanced performance in Advanced ECC mode. This architecture also enables Online Spare Memory mode. DIMM slots in this server are identified by number and by letter. Letters identify the population order. Slot numbers indicate the DIMM slot ID for spare replacement. DIMM ranks To understand and configure memory protection modes properly, an understanding of DIMM rank is helpful.
