First, thank you so much for the help. It's very much appreciated. However, I just need one last clarification. I hope.
1.) In both options, I will get the "unoptimized configuration" message on boot.
Is that OK?
2.) I tried looking all over the internet trying to figure out why channel 0 is better to put the larger?
It seemed to make sense to me to put the 2 x 4GB into channel zero, as that would bring to total RAM to chan 0 = 8GB, and then if I put 8GB in the others slots, that would make all "Channels" equal in size, or am I missing something?
3.) I figured out that if I put, 4GB modules into slots 1,2,3 and 8GB into slot 4, and then reverse for the other server. I do NOT get the "unoptimized configuration" messages on boot. That also means I have one server with 40GB of RAM and another with 56GB of RAM which is very nonoptimal for my needs.

Yes, I did. And it seems to work. Accept for the unoptimized configuration message on every boot.
Thank you for your suggestion. I will try it and let you know the result.

Now I fully understand. I may be able to swap memory with some other servers I have and make it all work as I would like.
Just one last thing. Now that I think I fully understand.
The picture you have above, is a little bit confusing to me personally.
Should it not be more like this?
Thank you! again for the help.
