Maximum Memory in Precision T7810

I some places saying the maximum memory in the T7810 is 2TB but most suggest it is only 256GB.

I have the two processor system currently with 256GB and I want to try and buy say 4 128GB DIMMS to put in the system. Anyone done something like this and can say if it worked?

    I can confirm that you can put in more than 256GB in a Precision 7810. I replaced two 32GB DIMMs with 64GB to get a grant total of 320GB. I used SNP29GM8C/64G.

    The official Dell Data sheet for the T7810 shows a maximum of 128GB per CPU installed (256GB with dual CPUs)

    I know this but some memory sellers are saying specifically you can put more in. Hence the question.

    With all that ram, would you need to upgrade from the 625w psu to the 825watt? Asking cause I'm upgrading mine to 128gb and it's not booting

    I've just tested  Precision 5810 and 7810 with 8x64Gb == 512GB ... all Samsung.

    Works fine  ;-))  I've tried 128GB Samsung memories,  no succes .. ;-((

    So for me max-RAM for both computers is 512 GB, not 256 as in factory spec.

    Not too unusual for some of somewhat older Dell's to be able to exceed RAM spec.

    @stanley_SS​ Hi Stanley, I've picked up a T7810 for cheap as a project build for an EVE-NG bare metal server, going to upgrade the CPU and memory, what Samsung 64GB memory sticks did you use in your successful test? --- if you don't mind me asking! ;)  I am working on a T7810 upgrade project to host a virtualisation server.
