ML370 memory; pc100 or pc133? 1

[greif1]

I am upping memory in an aging ML370 from 512mb to 2 gb and can get a better deal on pc100 memory than pc133. Will the slower memory cause more than a few percent slowdown to the end user?

Providing we are talking about the ML370 G1, the technical documents suggest that the server is only supported with PC133 memory and indicates that you should not mix and match DIMMs of different speeds.

See page 2-31 of the document below for confirmation:

Right you are! There is even an error msg about using a Dimm that is too slow. Thanks!

You should really look into getting OARS.
