Memory Question about PowerEdge T310
Hello,
I'm running a PowerEdge T310 and was wondering if this:
http://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Vengeance-Desktop-Memory-CMZ32GX3M4X1600C10/dp/tech-data/B0068ZWZY0/ref=de_a_smtd
is compatible to run on it? I know that the speed is 1600mhz but wasn't sure if this would cause issues.
I'd appreciate all your help.
Thank you,
John Rizk

No, it won't work. The T310 requires ECC memory ... it can be Registered (RDIMM) or Unbuffered (UDIMM), but it must be ECC.
or this one:
?
I'm sorry i'm not so fimiliar with this stuff for servers, didn't know there had to be so many requirements

Manual covers the population rules (some are Dell-specific, but most are Intel requirements):

Your second link should work (Registered).
You first link won't work (Unbuffered), because the T310 does not support UDIMM's larger than 2GB. None of Dell's docs, including BIOS update release notes, indicate that larger DIMM support was ever added, however, Crucial.com is selling 4GB DIMM's for the T310 that they guarantee to work, although there is no such indication that an 8GB DIMM would work. Docs list the UDIMM max as 8GB (4x2GB), and a max of 32GB (4x8GB) with RDIMM's.

John, the T310 only supports up to a 1333MhZ dimm. I wouldn't suggest or recommend installing dimms that are not within the specs of the server.
