RDIMM for T3620

Question

Hello. Im using T3620(xeon e3-1240 v5). I buy Samsung 8G RAM 2133Mhz(ECC) in market. the RAM was not working with my T3620. just power LED is blinking. and no beep sound. in the manual, i found that T3620 support ECC. but my T3620 is working witn non-ECC. is there any reason for this?

At the Crucial site here, they indicate both ECC and NON-ECC RAM as compatible. I suspect the problem lies more in the Samsung being non-compatible RAM. Dell systems are very picky about compatible RAM and the most compatible is Crucial.

@pribobo  @delluser589  @JOcean  2133 is too slow.  2666 and 2933 ram works fine 1.2v non XMP.  Must be Low Density INTEL compatible ram. DDR4 2933 PC4 23400 1.2v https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07Q3HNXCC/

Thanks for that information. I assume the user was going by the specs here which call for 2133 RAM.

Hi @pribobo, Though this thread is a few months old, a new post made it pop up again. If not already, be sure not to mix ECC and non-ECC RAM.
