Purpose:
It lists FWA-6170 DIMM installation for customer reference,
Target Audience:
For Advantech TSE, RBU AE, outsourcing service engineer(s) and End customer with the following knowledges :
- DIMM module installation and troubleshooting experience
Purpose:
Guide user properly install memory modules by providing physical DIMM slots info and recommended memory configuration for DDR4 DIMM population from Skylake/CascadeLake processor based systems.
Target Audience:
For users who bought FWA-6170 series platforms
Top View of DIMM sockets:
- FWA-6170 CPU is using Skylake/CascadeLake type, this CPU is included 2 Memory Control Hub (MCH), and each MCH controls 3 DIMM channels,
- Each FWA-6170 DIMM channel supports 2 DIMMs , the Black DIMM socket is the primary socket (ex: A1,B1...L1,M1), and blue DIMM is secondary(ex: A2, B2,...L2,M2)
- Install DIMM module in primary socket first is recommended and then secondary socket per DIMM channel.
- Please refer to attached PDF for recommended DIMM population
- When user doesn't follow this recommended DIMM populations, the CPU may NOT be able to utilize (initiate) installed memory modules and get better DIMM performance on FWA-6170 platforms
Recommended DIMM populations (aligned sockets):
