Hi, Just wondering if any one has had luck with third party memory in a Dell R905 server. I purchased a lot (96GB) to upgrade my R905 server and went with third party (Crucial) memory because it was half the cost of the Dell memory. The server does not recognize the memory. Both Dell tech support and Crucial tech support said the specs on the Dell memory and the Crucial are the same, but no luck. The machine is at the latest bios, I followed the Dell procedures for memory installation and configuration, and am using 4GB sticks. So before I send it all back and try to find several more thousand $$$, has anyone been able to make third party memory work and if so which brand and what if anything was done to make it work.
