SR1530HSH and CM2X2048-6400C5 RAM

[PAlek2]

Will CM2X2048-6400C5 RAM http://www.corsair.com/en-us/cm2x2048-6400c5 http://www.corsair.com/en-us/cm2x2048-6400c5 work with SR1530HSH server? My server has two KVR800D2N5/2G modules installed. I want to add RAM in order to increase size to 8 Gb. Will two CM2X2048-6400C5 and two KVR800D2N5/2G work in dual channel with dynamic paging mode? It seems that they have the same speed and latency. Or I need four fully identical modules (with the same manufacturer)?

There is no Corsair modules in official compatible memory list http://download.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/s3200sh/sb/s3200sh_memlist_rev_12.pdf http://download.intel.com/support/motherboards/server/s3200sh/sb/s3200sh_memlist_rev_12.pdf . Mixing memory from different vendors is not recommened generally.

Hello,

The affirmation from forum user JFFulcrum is correct. Mixing memory brands is not supported reason why we strongly recommend using validated memory and the same manufacturer to ensure the best performance:
