Hello
We have a Dell PowerEdge T710 with only 8GB RAM installed as 4x 2GB DIMMs.
Would like to upgrade the memory to 32GB total, although I've consulted the Crucial memory adviser would appreciate advice about exact memory specs.
I read in this post that populating 2 channels of memory will mean memory will operate at 1066MHz, but with all channels populated it will run at 800MHz.
Therefore if I plan to use all channels does this mean I must purchase 800MHz compatible memory?
Can someone give me a quick-and-easy guide to whether I should be getting dual rank, quad rank, what speed, etc.?
