Dell R820 Memory upgrade
Hello, I would like to ask if it is possible to add 16gb 1866MT/s memory to an R820.
On Dell site it clearly states that the server accepts up to 1866MT/s yet on every single paper that i have read it states up to 1600MT/s.
The target is at 512GB. And i was thinking of buying 16GB 2r4 PC3-14900R dimms. would it work or do they have to be low voltage. Maybe 32GB sticks?
Well the server has 4X E5 4650 v2 cpu and a newer motherboard. So the question that remains is can you load 32 rdimm 1.5v or do they need to be 1.35v?

Pavil,
The R820 supports both standard and low voltage dimms. That includes the 1866MHz range as well. We offer a 32GB 1866MHz 1.5 volt dimm, part # JGGRT. As well as 16GB dimms at the 1866MHz range (part # 12C23), which appear to be standard voltage (1.5v) as well.
I hope this helps.
