HP ProLiant DL380 G5 Memory Configuration

Is the HP ProLiant DL380 Generation 5 (G5) support 64gb total or 32gb. How many DIMMs does it have and what ram does it take PC2-5300F or can it take PC2-4200P (some ram I already have) I have googled the letters at the end of the ram and apparently it doesn't fit because of the notches in the different place but is this true? On the hp site, it says 32gb max on the other sites it says 64gb max. Also, what is the biggest DIMMs it can take 4gb or 8gb?

I think you need fully buffered DDR2, which has different notches and costs more. If you are in the UK, I know somewhere where you may be able to buy some cheap.

Email or phone a company called Tech Recycle. I'll link you to their website. They recycle/disassemble PCs and servers, and generally have a lot of DDR2. You will probably have to pay for delivery though. http://www.tech-recycle.com/
