[...] So next time you want to upgrade ram, be sure that the one you are buying is compatible with the old computer that you have. See this post for some more precautions before buying a RAM. [...]

That pretty much covers most of the issues, but I need a bit more advice on the 1st one. Most of the motherboard manuals fail to mention the rank of the DIMM/SIMM they support, neither is much information available on how to figure out (supported)rank for a given M/B or RAM DIMM. Wiki page on dual-channel configuration mentions the DIMMs should be of same Rank even if the M/B supports modules of different capacity. Would be great if you can throw some insight on Memory Rank and its significance and also if some tool is available that can query M/B for supported memory rank.
