Thanks for the responses. I was prompted to ask because I asked the
same question in a Dell online forum and got this response:
<<The Rank number is the number of 48 bit memory areas on the module. It
does NOT refer to single or double sided modules. Rank 1 has a single data
path to the chip, so it's always active. With Rank 2, the memory controller
may need to switch from one path to the other, thus possibly slowing down
accesses. Usually only important with some machines, such as a server with a
limited number of paths.>>
