What about the number of chips on each side of the memory? In "Memory test ReadyNAS Ultra 2", I read that people suspected that the reason some memories don't work is because they have totally 16 chips, while those who work have 8.
In this case the memories are DDR2, but does anyone know if this problem applies to the Ultra 4 as well? Has anyone tried memories with 16 chips? The one I just got has 16, but if this is a known problem, then I better return it rather than wasting my money on it. I have the PSD24G8002S. I saw that you, Chirpa, have the PSD24G6672S, so it should be the same but with different frequencies. Could you check how many chips it has?
EDIT: I ran a memory test 12 hours with the PSD24G8002S without any errors and now it's up and running!
