Thanks for the replies, I may potentially just go with the Dell route and save myself the hassle. The prices are in New Zealand Dollars, but I know for sure we are being ripped off. Unfortunately, that is the going rate for this type of Ram in the country, so there isn't much we can do.
Thanks again, it has been helpful.

We paid the price (this was a while ago and I know RAM prices like to fluctuate and exchange rates so forgive my poor guestimates), £220 (GBP) for 4GB of RAM so that would of been about $400 (USD) for DDR2 Fully Buffered ECC 667Mhz RAM!!!!!!! You may have to take the hit; after we bought the RAM I found a company that claimed they could of sold us RAM certified for the our 1950's and 2950's but much cheaper although it was too late (and they are UK only, I'm assuming you are in the USA) James -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.1 GIT/MU/U dpu s: a--> C++>$ U+> L++> B-> P+> E?> W+++>$ N K W++ O M++>$ V- PS+++ PE++ Y+ PGP t 5 X+ R- tv+ b+> DI D+++ G+ e(+++++) h--(++) r++ z++ ------END GEEK CODE BLOCK------ _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list [email protected] https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge Please read the FAQ at http://lists.us.dell.com/faq _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list [email protected] https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge Please read the FAQ at http://lists.us.dell.com/faq
