Independent mode
Independent mode provides high performance memory capability. You can populate all channels with no
matching requirements. Individual channels can run at different memory module timings, but all channels
must run at the same interface frequency.
The following table shows the memory module population sequence for independent mode when only one
processor (CPU1) is installed.
Note: If there are three identical memory modules to be installed for CPU1, and the three memory modules
have the same Lenovo part number, install the three memory modules in slots 1, 2, and 3.
