8 per cpu so 16 but he only got 1 cpu so can fill all memory slots

Now I count 24. 12 per CPU slot 6 on top and 6 below. I'm seeing white, black and blue.

For the old big HP or Dell servers it isn't uncommon to have that many ram slots. They can probably only take 2 or 4 gb ram chips though so it takes a lot of slots to have a lot of memory in them.

I know that server boards are full of RAM slots. It's just been so long that I've seen close to current hardware it's interesting to see that many.

I think our two new dell servers only have 8 slots. They want to sell you the 32 gb ram chips.

Sounds exactly like Dell (and Apple).

Posting here as it's part of the transition. Day 2, really, of the transition. We have upgraded XMF on the new server, still running the Luxel via Firewire PCI.

New XMF Client on new iMac, new Black Magic Client on same.

Black Magic server has been upgraded, and moved to run on the Windows 2012 HP server. So quite the transition...

Downside, still running old Adobe on old iMacs, so doing work on the files there, then dropping them over to the new iMacs, until we're 'Adobe-upgraded'.

My problem is the leap from 10.6.8 t Sierra. HowTF do you see Volume icons when you connect to another Mac/PC. Nothing seems to appear on the Desktop, like in 10.6?

Yep...I was in 10.6Land

XMF is now 64bit/multi-threading... fast. Black Magic on same server... fast.

Because we have been dragging the chain on Adobe upgrades, I'm hopping between a chair and a stool; check/fix stuff on old iMac, drop it into new one, take into XMF and proof from there. Like I've got bed-bugs...

But seriously, I don't know myself. Well, sometimes I don't know myself because I forget who I am, but that's different.   :old:

Did they only make one plate stacker? Had the exact one in my old shop.

You expected to not have any hiccups? That's cute.  ;D

Managed a fast turnaround on proofs that "have to go this morning"; which I'd never have contemplated before...
