I am using a HP DL 160 G6 server that according to specs takes PC3 Registered or Unbuffered. When I combine the two types of memory below the system will not POST. When I use just the first type of memory listed the system will POST.
I have two pieces of HP memory that came with the server labeled
PC3-10600E-9-10-E0
and then I have some Crucial memory labeled
PC3-10600R-9-10-B0
I wager that the R means Registered memory and the E means ECC - then shouldn't the crucial memory boot with the system according to the HP specs? Or does the E mean it is Unbuffered and therefore I shouldn't mix and match as according to this HP memory config doc?
