    Trying to setup a database failover cluster...

    Even after 72 hours of reading MANY articles, guides, and tutorials, along with watching countless YouTube videos and Google-ing like a madman, I still apparently understand nothing about failover clusters since I cannot get this to work for the life of me. So as you can tell from my demeanor, I...

    Will using up 3 of my 4 DIMM Slots slow down the speed?

    Will losing that Dual Channel capability affect anything? Also, all 3 of these sticks are the same, the original 1GB stick was a Dual Channel but the other stick broke, so all 3 of these sticks are the same exact model, any chance all 3 will work together, creating a Tri-Channel?
