Upgrade 96 GB RAM to 144 GB PowerEdge R620
I have a Dell R620 server, it has 96 GB RAM in configuration (2 processors with 8GB*12DIMMS).
Now I need to upgrade to 144 GB in RAM, considering that I have 6 additional 8GB cards; however I can't find the configuration for this activity, I read the following manual without finding the desired configuration:
How should I upgrade from 96GB to 144GB of RAM if I have 8GB cards only?

I believe it will work even though it is not a desired configuration. You need to ensure you are following all guidelines mentioned in below link

As you have 18 DIMM's You can populate DIMM's on A1 to A9 DIMM slot of both processor. Is new DIMM's have same type and speed of existing DIMM?
