Step 3: Choose Additional Factory Integratable Options
ControllersNOTE: When SATA hard drives are installed, SATA LED functionality and full SATA hot-plug capability are not supported with the embedded controller. For full LED and hot-plug support, an optional SAS RAID controller must be installed.
NOTE:
When hot-plug SATA hard drives are installed, SATA LED functionality and full SATA hot-plug capability are not supported with the embedded controller. For full LED and hot-plug support, an optional SATA RAID or SAS controller must be installed. A SAS HBA or Controller is required if SAS hard drives are selected. SAS HBAs and Controllers support both SAS and SATA hard drives. Some SAS HBAs and Controllers also have SAS tape support. Please refer to the "Tape Drives, Tape Autoloader & Tape Libraries" table in the Storage section for a list of SAS HBAs and Controllers with tape support.

Memory

NOTE: Memory configurations listed do not apply to "Factory Integrated Models".

HP ProLiant ML310 G4 Memory Configuration

Standard Memory
All HP ProLiant ML310 G4 models ship with unbuffered, ECC PC2-5300 DDR2 SDRAM running at 667MHz.
SATA/SAS models include a single 512 MB DIMM. SAS models include a single 1GB DIMM.
Factory Integrated Models include the memory capacity of your choice.

Standard Memory Replaced with Optional Memory
Up to 8 GB memory is available with the optional installation of four 2 GB PC2-5300 Unbuffered ECC DDR2 SDRAM DIMM kits.

 

DIMM upgrades do not need to be installed in pairs although installation of pairs (an equal size DIMM for each channel) provides the best performance. The BIOS will detect the DIMM population and initialize the system accordingly as follows:

  • Single-channel mode - DIMMs installed for one channel only
  • Dual-channel asymmetric mode - DIMMs installed for both channels but of unequal channel capacities.
  • Dual-channel interleaved mode (recommended) - DIMMs installed for both channels and offering equal channel capacities, providing the highest performance.

The first DIMM should be installed in Socket 1. A DIMM should not be installed in Socket 2 without a DIMM in Socket 1. Likewise a DIMM should not be installed in Socket 4 without a DIMM in Socket 3. A DIMM need not be installed in Socket 2 in order to install a DIMM in Socket 3.

Table 3-1 shows some of the suggested memory configurations for these systems.
NOTE: Table 3-1 does not list all possible configurations. Balanced-capacity, dual-channel loading yields best performance.
