Hi

Looking to buy some more memory for my main virtualisation host - based on a Supermicro X8DTN. Bit confused - why is the dual rank more expensive than its quad rank counterparts? I believe I have dual rank in the server at the moment. Obviously I would prefer to go for the cheaper memory :) Any thoughts?


KVR1333D3Q8R9S/8G - quad rank ECC Registerd 1333Mhz
