Compatibility rules
The criteria for compatibility are essentially:
- must be DDR4;
- must be ECC;
- must be registered (RDIMM);
- must NOT be LRDIMM.
The supported module sizes are 8GB, 16GB, 32GB, 64GB and 128GB.
The supported memory speeds are 1600, 1866, 2133, 2400, 2666 MHz.
Ram will be running at a potentially slower frequency (2666, 2400, or 2133) based on if there is 1, 2 or 4 DIMMs per channel
| Platform | Slots | Max. Capacity |
