optiblex 755 SFF memory maximum

I have two Optiplex 755 SFF running VMware ESX 4.1 with 8GB. I want to extend the memory to maximum

Can anybody clearify this Statement from the product brief:

"Delivers up to 12.8 Gb/s (DDR2 800 dual 6.4 Gb/s) of bandwidth and 8 Gb memory addressability for faster system

responsiveness and support of 64-bit computing"

Does this mean 6.4 Gb/s and 8GB accessability per channel, or is the adressability limited to 8GB over both channels?

Thanks

Thomas

The SFF only has 2 Memory slots.

So 12 gig is not happening on the SFF.

The SFF has 4 memory slots.  The USFF has only 2!

So-  with 4 slots are 16 gig possible?
