T410 DIMM Population
Hi there,
I have dual-processor T410 and I want to populate all 8 slots to maximize the total memroy. At the moment I have there sticks:
- 4x 4GB 2Rx8 10600E
- 4x 8BG 2Rx4 10600R
I tried to follow the technical doc and whatever I try, it works only with either 8GB modules or the 4GB ones. Can I not use all of 'em? What's gonna be be best option in this sitution, so that I get the total max size?

Hi @SantanuDas,
I tried googling to find out the general specification of your 2 types of memory. I would like to confirm the memory modules that you have, 10600E are Unbuffered Memory and 10600R is Registered Memory. If the specification are correct, the server doesnot support mixture of both UDIMM and RDIMM. You can refer to the specification guide page 27: https://dell.to/3i6FUWz. Best option, use either of them. You are not able to mix them.

Thanks Joey!
That actually makes sense now; otherwise I don't see any reason why they won't work. if I get another 4x 8BG 2Rx4 10600R sticks, then I'll be able to use full 64GB, right?

Hello,
following the specifications, yes if you can use the same dimm bank you can use all of them.
Thanks
