Adding memory to an R630

We have a dual CPU R630 which was supplied with a total of 16 x 16 GB RDIMMs (2133 MT/s, dual rank, x4 data rate) factory-fitted for a total installed memory of 256 GB. These RDIMMs are in slots A1-8 and B1-8.

While it's possible to add another 8 x 16 GB memory modules of exactly the same spec in the 8 remaining green slots to give a total of 384 GB, is it possible to fit 8 x 32 GB RDIMMs instead of 16 GB RDIMMs, moving existing 16 GB modules from white slots A1-4 and B1-4 over to green slots A9-12 and B9-12 and fitting the 32 GB modules in the white slots? This ought to provide 52 GB of total memory.

Thanks in advance if this can be confirmed,

Andy
