4GB Memory For Areca 1880 Series RAID Cards

[Serra]

I'm finally about to have some downtime to try to re-evaluate my card / memory and see if I can spot differences between my systems and the one that the Mushkin failed on soon, but I will say straight off that that Kingston pack (KVR800D2D4P6/4G) is very unlikely to work.

I don't know if it's the power draw or the chip arrangement that's screwing 99% of the RAM that SHOULD be compatible out there, but this missed out in both respects.

wow must be important Mr. Jansa, your first post since '07! glad ya chimed in

yea, first post to crash somebody's dreams about affordable memory. How mean it sounds Concerning memory support these cards seems to be very similar.

Wise afterwards, 1231ML IOP341. ARECA- "Since Intel IOP has the organization limitation, the memory chip must have x8 or higher organization and not four (quad) rank type. If the memory chip is x4 organization, it will not work on our controllers."
KVR800D2D4P6/4G should be dual rank, x4 so even theoretically not match. Not speaking about real-life anomalies between components should work flawlessly

And yes, not sure about 1880- I/O Processor "RAID-on-Chip 800MHz", does it support dual rank, x4 dimm. When I receive SR-2 for my new build I may be tempted to grab ARC-1880-ix-16 because now I have memory
But really, I do not belive its compatible with 1880 either. At least not before somebody is proving the opposite IRL.

and it works? for the 1880?

jsut think fellas...soon we will be looking for DDR3 for the 1882

It does
