Target Audience:

For users who bought FWA-6172 series platforms

 

Top View of DIMM sockets:

1. Each FWA-6172 DIMM channel supports 1 DIMM (sockets) and total supports 16 DIMM sockets. Please refer following table to install DIMM in FWA-6172 DIMM socket.

2. Without following the recommended DIMM populations, the CPU may NOT be able to utilize (initiate) installed memory modules
