-This Server RAM is not for desktops- Here is the difference between desktop and server memory. Server memory is generally ECC Registered (buffered). There are extra chips on the module that provide error correction and data checking functions. It is easy to spot ECC Registered Server RAM by looking at the chips on the module. While desktop memory usually has eight chips per side, server memory has 9 large or 18 half-size chips per side, plus two or three smaller "register" chips. The 9th (and 18th) DRAM chips provide the error correction function, and the additional "register" chips hold the data for one clock cycle (ie act as "buffers") to increase the reliability of high-speed data access. Unless your machine specifically supports ECC Registered memory your machine will not function correctly and may not even boot with this type of memory installed.
