not as familiar, however, about the efficiency of double-sided vs. =
single-sided memory. Could someone clue me in on the pros and cons of =
this?

Well, there is sometimes a problem with number of banks - if you have 4
banks per channel rather than 2, you sometimes need to increase command rate
delay to 2T or even lower memory frequency.

Double-sided memory is usually two-banks. So usually it is better to use
single sided memory only.
