8192 MB PC2-5300 (2 x 4096 MB RDIMMs)     4523        0          16
16384 MB PC2-3200 (2 x 8192 MB RDIMMs)    4524        0          16

The general take-away is that memory must be installed in pairs, and the system can hold a maximum of 16x 'features', or 32x RDIMMs. (4x CPU modules, each with 8x RDIMM slots)

The memory itself is standard DDR2 ECC Registered memory available from several different manufacturers / vendors.

There does not appear to be anything unique or specific about the IBM-branded modules.
