Hi everyone,

Last week I got a R310 from a friend of mine with no CPU and memory.
Therefore I ordered an Intel Xeon X3470 and 2x PC3-10600R 8GB modules to get it up and running.
However, today, when putting everything in the system, it did not work, and I found that this is not a supported memory configuration.

I therefore tried to change the memory modules for 4x PC3-10600R 4GB (2Rx4) modules.
However, when booting the server, the situation did not change: it will not POST, and on the diagnostic panel, LEDs 1 and 4 are on.
This struck me as weird, since the hardware owners manual suggests this is a supported configuration:

I am hoping that someone here can help me to find out what is going on.

Some things I have tried:

• Upgrading the bios to the latest version (1.14.0)
• The CPU and server work: I can boot the system with 4x PC3-10600E 1GB modules
• The memory works: I can boot my other server with this memory in it

I appreciate any help in advance,

Best,

Olivier
