§ For model EFU, the standard DIMM is rated at 1600 MHz, but operates at up to 1333 MHz to match the processor memory speed. For models ELC, EOC, ERC, and ESC, the standard DIMM is rated at 1866 MHz, but operates at up to 1333 MHz to match the processor memory speed. For models ETC and EUC, the standard DIMM is rated at 1866 MHz, but operates at up to 1600 MHz to match the processor memory speed. Conversely, for model EWC, the processor memory speed is rated at 1866 MHz, but operates at up to 1600 MHz to match the rated speed of the installed DIMM. Actual memory speed maximums depend on several factors, as described in "Memory options".

Memory options

IBM DDR3 memory is compatibility tested and tuned for optimal System x performance and throughput. IBM memory specifications are integrated into the light path diagnostics for immediate system performance feedback and optimum system uptime. From a service and support standpoint, IBM memory automatically assumes the IBM system warranty, and IBM provides service and support worldwide.

The IBM System x3650 M4 supports DDR3 memory. The server supports up to 12 DIMMs when one processor is installed and up to 24 DIMMs when two processors are installed. Each processor has four memory channels, and there are three DIMMs per channel.

The following rules apply when selecting the memory configuration:



Server supports UDIMMs, RDIMMs, HyperCloud DIMMs (also known as HCDIMMs), and LRDIMMs.



Mixing different types of memory (UDIMMs, RDIMMs, HyperCloud DIMMs, and LRDIMMs) is not supported.



Mixing 1.5 V and 1.35 V DIMMs is supported; in such a case, all DIMMs operate at 1.5 V.

IBM System x3650 M4 18



Maximum number of ranks per one channel is eight (with the exception of Load Reduced DIMMs and HyperCloud DIMMs where more than eight ranks are supported, because one quad-rank LRDIMM or HCDIMM provides the reduced electrical load on a memory bus).



The maximum quantity of DIMMs that can be installed in the server depends on the number of CPUs, DIMM type, rank, and operating voltage, as shown in the "Max. qty supported" row in Table 5.



All DIMMs in the server operate at the same speed, which is determined as the lowest value of:



Memory speed that is supported by the specific CPU.



Lowest of maximum operating speeds for selected memory configuration that depends on rated speed, operating voltage, and quantity of DIMMs per channel, as shown under "Maximum operating speed" section in the table.

The following table (Parts 1, 2, 3, and 4) shows the characteristics of the supported DIMMs. Tables cells highlighted with a gray background indicate when the combination of DIMM voltage and the number of DIMMs per channel still allows the DIMMs to operate at a rated speed.

The following memory protection technologies are supported:



ECC



Chipkill (for x4-based memory DIMMs)



Memory mirroring



Memory rank sparing

If memory mirroring is used, DIMMs must be installed in pairs (minimum of one pair per each CPU), and both DIMMs in a pair must be identical in type and size.

If memory rank sparing is used, then a minimum of one quad-rank DIMM or two single-rank or dual-rank DIMMs must be installed per populated channel (the DIMMs do not need being identical). In rank sparing mode, one rank of a DIMM in each populated channel is reserved as spare memory. The size of a rank varies depending on the DIMMs installed.

I/O expansion options

The server supports up to six PCIe slots with different riser cards installed into two riser sockets on the system planar (one riser socket supports installation of one riser card). Riser 1 supplies slots 1, 2, and 3. Riser 2 supplies slots 4, 5, and 6. Standard models have Riser card 1 installed with three PCIe 3.0 x8 slots. To enable slots 4 - 6, install a second processor and a second riser card.

Configurations with one Quadro 4000 or any quantity of Quadro 6000 adapters are CTO only as they require additional power and cooling components

IBM System x3650 M4 40



If three or four Quadro 600 adapters are to be installed, then the second processor must be installed



An air baffle kit and GPU AUX power cables may be required and will be included by the configurator as needed



If the Quadro 600 is installed, the maximum memory that can be installed is 128 GB.



If Quadro 2000, 4000 or 6000 are installed, a maximum of 16 LRDIMMs or HCDIMMs can be installed and the total memory installed cannot exceed 512 GB



Further restrictions apply depending on the power supplies installed as described in the Power supplies section.

Power supplies

The server supports up to two redundant power supplies. Standard models come with one or two power supplies (model dependent). The following table lists the power supplies.
