While this may come off as yet another ram question it is slightly different in what I have seen covered.
I've updated my own RAM before, but this is throwing me off for two reasons. One, it is a server that has two processors. Which is nice, but does each processor need to have matching RAM? what are the rules when dealing with two processors?
The second question is what to make of what I have
All I know about them is what the invoice says 24GB Memory (6x4GB), 1333MHz Dual Ranked LV RDIMMs for 1 Proc, Optimized
(note this machine was not purchased by me. It was purchased early last winter)
I have six open slots and would like too add 6x8GB and triple the memory available. But I am having a hard time figuring out what I have from the above line. So would something like this work http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820139273 (x2): Kingston 24GB (3 x 8GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM ECC Registered DDR3 1333 (PC3 10600) Server Memory Model KVR1333D3D4R9SK3/24G
I'm using linux/centOs5.5 if that matters to anyone.
Please post the Power Edge model number for more informed help. – Moab – 2011-10-24T21:44:04.287

Oops T610. I dont know why I thought 6100 – matchew – 2011-10-24T21:47:11.377
So, I think I found what I want. In the details it lists my system as a compatable system : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820139320&Tpk=KTD-PE313K3%2f24G However, my first question is still a valid question. How does upgrading ram work on a 2cpu system?
