Hi,
re the above, can anyone tell me the specs for the 16gb sodimm's ? I tried CT16G4SFD824A 16 GB (DDR4, 2400 MT/s, PC4-19200, Dual Rank x8, SODIMM, 260-Pin) Memory but it wouldn't boot. Bad memory or wrong type?
regards

Just for anyone else who might ask this question. I found the following work well
Corsair CMSX16GX4M1A2400C16 16 GB (1 x 16 GB) Vengeance SODIMM DDR4 2400 C16 1.2V Memory
What threw me initially was that on boot up, the internal fans went to full RPM and I assumed that the bios wasn't posting.
I left it for about 5 minutes and then the system returned to normal state and booted ok.
There is no delay on subsequent boots. Perhaps the system needed time to reconfigure itself, who knows -
It does need time to train the new RAM when it is changed. It's a one-time process, as you noticed.

Hey, I was experiencing the same issue with the Crucial CT16G4SFD824A 16 GB (DDR4, 2400 MT/s, PC4-19200, Dual Rank x8, SODIMM, 260-Pin) Memory. No matter how long I waited, it would never boot. This was weird because I even contacted Netgate and that's what they said they put in the upgraded models of the 7100. I did end up returning the Crucial stick and buying a Kingston KCP424SD8/16 OEM 16GB DDR4 2400MHz SODIMM Laptop RAM Memory Module and it ended up booting and working perfectly. I figured I'd add to the thread of ram modules that worked for the 7100. I am running 24.03-RELEASE with coreboot 01.00.00.20.
