Non-Optimal Memory Configurations
The POST may halt when a non-optimal memory configuration is detected
and the following message is displayed:
Non-Optimal Memory Configuration
Press F1 to continue or F2 for Setup
NOTE: Mixing DIMMs of different speeds renders the memory configuration
non6Hoptimal. The system clocks down the performance to the slowest speed
in the DIMM set for the channel.

Optional Internal USB Memory Key
The PowerEdge 1950 III system provides an internal USB connector located
on the system board for use with a USB flash memory key (see Figure 1-1).
The USB memory key can be used as a boot device, security key, or mass
storage device. To use the internal USB connector, the Internal USB Port
option must be enabled in the Integrated Devices screen of the System Setup
program. See "Integrated Devices Screen" on page 22.
Information Update 7
Figure 1-1. Internal USB Connector Location
To boot from the USB memory key, you must configure the USB memory
key with a boot image and then specify the USB memory key in the boot
sequence in the System Setup program. See
"Using the System Setup
Program" in the
Hardware Owner’s Manual
. For information on creating
a bootable file on the USB memory key, see the user documentation that
accompanied the USB memory key.
NOTE: USB keys that contain multiple LUNs (Logical Unit Numbers) must be
formatted using the format utility provided by the key manufacturer.
NOTE: To avoid interference with components inside the system, the USB key must
conform to the following maximum dimensions: 11.68mm thick (0.46") x 24.89mm
width (0.98") x 66.8mm length (2.63").

Support for 8-GB Memory Modules –
PowerEdge 1950 III Systems
PowerEdge 1950 III systems have added support for the following approved
8-GB memory configurations:
64 GB — 8 x 8-GB quad-rank memory modules
48 GB — 4 x 8-GB quad-rank and 4 x 4-GB dual-rank memory modules
If 64 GB of memory is installed, the system only recognizes and displays
63.75 GB during POST.
NOTE: Prior to upgrading your system, verify that the latest system BIOS version is on your
system. Loading the latest BIOS version ensures that your system is fully supported.
NOTE: Some operating systems cannot support more than 4 GB of physical memory. For
more information on memory support requirements and restrictions, refer to the operating
system documentation that ships with your system.
Processor Upgrades – PowerEdge 1950 II
and PowerEdge 1950 III Systems
If the front of your system chassis is labeled with a "II," your system is
upgradeable to the 5100 series of dual-core Intel Xeon processors and
the 5300 series of quad-core Intel Xeon processors.
If the front of your system chassis is labeled with a "III," your system is
upgradeable to the 5100 and 5200 series of dual-core Intel Xeon processors
and the 5300 and 5400 series of quad-core Intel Xeon processors.
See support.dell.com for information on the latest processor upgrade options
for your system.
10 Information Update
System Board Replacement – Safeguarding
Encrypted Data
On PowerEdge 1950 III systems using Windows Server
®
2008, you can use
encryption programs, such as the BitLocker utility, to secure the contents
of the hard drive.
If you are using the TPM with an encryption application, you are prompted
to create a recovery key during system setup. Be sure to store this recovery key.
If you replace the system board, you must supply the recovery key when you
restart your system before you can access the encrypted files on your hard
drive(s).
System Message Update
Table 1-1 lists new system messages for the PowerEdge 1950 III system and
the probable cause and corrective action when the message appears.
WARNING: Only trained service technicians are authorized to remove the system
cover and access any of the components inside the system. See your Product
