I never heard anything about keeping open slots. But, I have read that you should install matching pairs. Mixed manufacturers and sizes is ok, but they should be the same type. They make 8GB sticks now? You should check if they're compatible. I think my 3,1 will only take up to 4 GB sticks.

Can I add 4 8GB chips to this using the empty slots? Or was there something written about leaving a slot or two open for some reason? > > thanks > Lou > Lou Wirth Productions > 500Tamal Plaza, Suite 522 > Corte Madera, CA 94925 > www.louwirth.com > 415-924-9411p > > > > > > > +---End of message---+ > To unsubscribe send any message to
