November 29, 201114 yr G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 (PC3 10666) Desktop Memory Model F3-10666CL9D-8GBRL $25 shipped, no promo or MIR Crazy deal. If I didn't already have so much spare RAM, I would be all over this.
November 29, 201114 yr It was too hard to pass up at that price. Even if it doesn't work in my unRAID I'll make good use of it for something else. Does anyone have experience trying this RAM or other, similar GSkill on a SuperMicro X8SIL-F-O?
November 30, 201114 yr Author It was too hard to pass up at that price. Even if it doesn't work in my unRAID I'll make good use of it for something else. Does anyone have experience trying this RAM or other, similar GSkill on a SuperMicro X8SIL-F-O? Supermicro boards at large are very picky about the RAM they use. You'll need to check SuperMicro and G.Skill's tested memory lists to see if this RAM will work for that board. If it isn't on either list, then I wouldn't try it.
November 30, 201114 yr Appreciate this, HTPC and Unraid will be upgraded by Friday now. I wasn't going to fuss about my HTPC as it ran fine, though with 4GB more than it has now.. shoot, looking forward to the shipment. 8GB in the Unraid may sound like overkill also (more so perhaps especially since I don't use Sab or any of that on the server), but.. $25 pfft. Yeah, appreciate this one Raj.
November 30, 201114 yr Author 8 GB isn't overkill if you use Cache_dirs (an excellent script by Joe L.). The more RAM the better!
