An administrator installed new DDR3 memory in a server and discovered that the new memory has a voltage of 1.35 V, which is lower than the 1.5 V of the existing DDR3 server memory. Which statement…

The correct answer is A. It can be mixed in the same server. From Product Bulletin HP DL380p Gen8 RDIMMs operating at either 1.35V or 1.5V may be mixed in any order, but the system will power them at the higher voltage. Using the HP RBSU, 1.35V DIMMs can be changed to operate at 1.5V

Question

An administrator installed new DDR3 memory in a server and discovered that the new memory has a voltage of 1.35 V, which is lower than the 1.5 V of the existing DDR3 server memory. Which statement is correct about mixing memory with different voltages?

Options

  • AIt can be mixed in the same server
  • BIt can be mixed in the same server if populated in different memory controllers
  • CIt can be mixed in the same server if the different voltages are in a different memory channel
  • DIt cannot be mixed in the same server, so the new memory needs to be replaced with 1.5 V
