Thank you but it seems I can't use registered memory in this server. What kind memory do you have exactly?

***Okay after digging around, the current ram in the server is 2GB Kingston ram (Kingston 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM ECC Unbuffered DDR2 667 (PC2 5300) Dual Channel Kit Server Memory Model KVR667D2E5K2/2G) Soooo I'm on the hunt for non-Registered, unbuffered memory (2gb x 4, ddr2 memory)

Thank you, please let me know. I don't have use for more than 4 but I guess I could maybe find somebody that would need it? It seems that FB-DIMM's are plenty but regular 240-pin DIMM's are a bit harder to find.

Hello, I'm helping a friend upgrade his home lab server and we are looking for the following memory. 2gb x 4 DDR2-667 ECC 240-pin DIMM **UNBUFFERED* not FBDIMM. ***Okay after digging around, the current ram in the server is 2GB Kingston ram (Kingston 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM ECC...

Well it looks like my offer for a E3-1280 was accepted so I'll be using the intel board. Comparing both, seems the E3-1280 will have a lower typical power consumption compared to my i7-870 Asus setup. http://cpuboss.com/cpus/Intel-Xeon-E3-1280-vs-Intel-Core-i7-870

I actually haven't through about much about passthrough at this time. My plans for the hypervisor is: -Gain experience with proxmox/and possibly xenserver -VM's to create: --PFsense possibly --Game Server --Pi-Hole ad blocking server/DNS --Few Windows Server OS's to setup AD/DHCP and such...

Hey everyone, I have a few i5 series desktops in my home that I acquired from a local college. I was selling off a bunch of them but turned one into a gaming pc a few months ago and now I want to convert it into a proxmox/hypervisor node. The units I have are fairly current and have either of...

Thank you for all that Allenpan. As per your recommendation, I purchased 32gb of corsair memory and just received it today. The motherboard accepted it and the system booted up just fine. I have an i7 870 waiting to get installed and waiting for the delivery of my quad NIC. Thanks for the help

Thank you for that. With the CPU, it's identified that it will run 16GB Max, so just curious...what do they base that limit on and how can you run 32GB? Has the system been stable with the memory? I'm planning on using it at a server for proxmox

Sorry to bump this old thread but Allenpan, do you know what memory model you used for this board? Do you still have the P7P55D with 32GB?

Thanks for the reply. The card that I used was an experiment that I am quite pleased with. Netac 64gb. class 10, UHS3 card. P500 64GB(Class 10，UHS-I U3)-Shenzhen Netac Technology Company Limited Netac P500 64GB Micro SD Memory Card We will see how this performs over time, the card was a low...

***If this is the wrong section, please let me know and I will move the thread. Hey guys, I've never tested nor done much with microSD cards in regards to comparing them for speed but I purchased a Firefly 6S a few weeks back and wanted more space so I recently purchased a Class 10, 64gig, with...

Hey guys, I'd like to have my networking gear and a server or two in my basement but I'm having difficulty with device placement because of heat conditions in the furnace room. My basement is all finished, including the furnace room as depicted below. I want to keep my HP media server, router...
