Advanced ECC (Lockstep)

Advanced ECC mode extends SDDC from x4 DRAM based DIMMs to both x4 and x8 DRAMs. This protects against single DRAM chip failures during normal operation.

Memory installation guidelines:

  • Memory sockets A1, A4, B1, and B4 are disabled and do not supported Advanced ECC mode.
  • DIMMs must be installed in matched pairs — DIMMs installed in memory sockets (A2, B2) must match DIMMs installed in memory sockets (A3, B3) and DIMMs installed in memory sockets (A5, B5) must match DIMMs installed in memory sockets (A6, B6).
  • NOTE: Advanced ECC with mirroring is not supported.
