    Hi, Bought a used DL580 g9 with 4x 8880 v4 and 16x 16GB ddr4 2133P cheap(ish). The attached photo shows one mem stick - the other match the stickers seen. These evidently are not HP branded but, on boot, the bios recognizes them as smart HP memory. How is this possible? With the above setup...

    Hi, The hardware manual for the HP ML350 G9 says that of the four x16 pcie slots, 3 are full 16-electrical an one 8.
