Hi, I bought a Mac Pro with 32GB (4x8GB) Ram and bought additional four 64GB modules myself. Now I tried to install the Ram according to this guide. From what I understand I should install the small modules into channel 1 (5 & 8) and channel 2 (3 & 10) and the bigger modules into channel 3 (1 & 12) and channel 4 (6 & 7). As stated for 8 modules channel 3 should be skipped so channel 5 (4 & 9) should be used instead.
I tried all the combinations, but nothing worked. I always get the amber light flashing when I switch on the Mac. As I have to open and close the case every time I try another combination this took a while and a lot of nerves. When I install either all the 4 smaller modules or the bigger ones everything is fine, so I thought the small and big modules does not work together, but there is a combination which is surprisingly working:
But it's not working anymore when I try to install the 2 other 8GB modules.
Does anyone got mixed ram combination with 8 modules working?
Thanks a lot!
