Yup. I didn't mean anything by it, so I apologize if it was offensive. I'll know better next time... You gave me an idea of what the issue was, and I have no clue how you could have possibly thought of it... > My guess is that it is a buffering issue.

The specs for this one say it can use either 2k or 4k, so I'm thinking that the SCSI/DMA/Transfer rate must have something to do with it. > I'm glad you made some headway.

Currently, I have it set up this way, and its working: A1/B1 - 64 MB DIMM's A2/B2 A3/B3 - 16 MB DIMM's A4/A4 32 MB DIMM's If I use it in just about any other order, the 32 MB DIMM's cause the SCSI to fail. I also can't put them in A5/B5 or A6/B6 in this configuration without failure. This is so weird.
