Dell EMC NVDIMM-N Persistent Memory User Guide

Set Up

Windows Server 2016 and 2019 natively supports NVDIMM-N devices allowing application and service access to extremely high performance and low latency NVDIMM-N devices on memory bus.

From BIOS Setup, enable the Persistence Memory setting, which is also the default BIOS settings when NVDIMM-N devices are plugged in. Windows Server 2016 and Windows 10 Anniversary Edition currently do not support interleaved sets of NVDIMM-Ns and the NVDIMM-N Interleave setting should be set to Disable, which is the default setting.

Windows Server 2019 supports NVDIMM-N interleaving and this option can be set to Enable.

2017-07 Cumulative Update for Windows Server 2016 for x64-based Systems (KB4025334) is required for NVDIMM-N to function correctly in Windows Server 2016.
