What I would look at first is the slots the dimms are being installed in. With using only six dimms you will need to populate the Dimm 0 slot on channel A B and C. So that would be populating ONLY the slots with the white tabs. Is that the slots you were using?
If so then could you let me know the specific part number and I can check compatibility. Also could you confirm the BIOS and iDrac revision as as well?
Let me know.

What is the BIOS revision on the server? Also, if you access the BIOS (F2) and then go to the Memory Settings and then to Memory Mode, is it set to Optimizer?
Let me know.
