If there is a separate memory bank for each CPU socket, then both sockets will need memory as they cannot share. This will have more to do with your motherboard than the CPUs themselves.

Thx. So the CPU architecture isn't that important?<br />

In other words, does this CPU is NUMA compliant w/ separated RAM channels for each CPU, or can i just add RAM however i want?<br />
<br />
The server is an Intel server (basically brand less).<br />

Thx <br />

Does Intel Xeon E5410 w/ 2x CPU's requires adding RAM in both CPU's channels?

Servers are computing devices that are similar to desktop computers in that they have the same basic components, but are significantly different in size, configuration and purpose. Servers are usually accessed over a network, and many run unattended, without a computer monitor, input device, audio hardware or USB interfaces. Many servers do not have a graphical user interface (GUI), and are configured and managed remotely. Servers typically include hardware redundancy such as dual power supplies, RAID disk systems, and ECC memory, along with extensive pre-boot memory testing and verification. Critical components might be hot swappable, and to guard against overheating, servers might have more powerful fans or use water cooling.

Server Hardware

Hardware includes cell phones and other digital living devices, tablets, computers, servers, peripherals and components, printers and scanners, gaming consoles, networking hardware such as routers, hubs, switches and modems, storage devices and security equipment such as firewalls and other appliances.

Hardware

Components are those devices that are internal to a computer -- the PC boards, the central processor (CPU), the memory (RAM), disk and video controllers and so on.
