Dell PowerEdge C6320 Owner's Manual

For the sequence of the 16 memory-module sockets, the system requires at least one memory module installed on processor 1’s DIMM slot 1 in order to boot up. When you insert the memory modules, always start with CHA_A1. The optimized memory module installation sequence is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8.
