For example, the first RAM stick will hold all even addressed data: 0x00000000, 0x00000002, 0x00003284 and another stick will hold all odd addressed data: 0x00000001, 0x00000003, 0x00003285 etc. | |

What's needed is support from the motherboard and depending on the architecture the CPU (older systems with external memory controllers used to use generic CPUs but a lot of modern systems have integrated the memory controller) | |

| Mar 21, 2019 at 14:50 | comment | added | gronostaj | @kloddant Neither RAID-0 (striping), nor multi-channel, nor interleaving decrease amount of available memory, because there is no redundancy (unlike in higher RAIDs). | |
| Mar 21, 2019 at 14:35 | comment | added | kloddant | This sounds like probably what I am after. I'll have to read up on it more. So would it cut my visible memory in half and then double the speed? | |
