HP0-S34 · Question #86
An admin installed new DDR3 memory in a server and discovered that the server contained quad- rank, 2 rank and 1 rank. What should you recommend?
The correct answer is B. Populate the memory modules from the heaviest to the lightest load within a channel. See HP Product Buelletin --> Populate DIMMs from heaviest load (quad-rank) to lightest load (single-rank) within a channel. Heaviest load (DIMM with most ranks) within a channel goes furthest from the processor
