Another incompatible memory module?

[DaleChatham]

Memory: Veteke Performance RAM 8GB DDR4 2400MHZ PC4-19200 CL17 260-PIN SODIMM
URL: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07 ... UTF8&psc=1

Symptom:

Two blue and one red LED on solid.
Press reset button and the reset LED blinks, then comes back on solid.
Press on/off button for five seconds, it goes off for about one second, then comes back on.

POST never seems to happen.

Can anyone verify if this DIMM does or does not work?

Is there any way to tell from the listing in Amazon that it will not work (or, did I miss something?)

Nobody seems to test the Veteke memory yet.
Refer this wiki page and forum thread.

If you have a working(compatible) memory and update the BIOS to 1.03. It will make your Veteke memory work with H2 probably.
You can find BIOS v1.03 in this link.

[DaleChatham]

I updated to 1.03, no joy. Memory still does not work.

[odroid]

I see. I've added your test result to the WiKi page.

Sorry for use this thread, but i dont want to create new one.
I have H2, Bios v.1.03. 8GB HyperX Kingston Technology Impact 8GB Kit (2 x 4GB) 2400MHz DDR4 CL14 SODIMM Laptop Memory HX424S14IBK2/8
And SSD Gigabyte M.2 PCIe 256GB SSD

Both works like charm! (only information for another buyers)

Right now im testing Windows 10

@Trupik,
Thank you for the information. I've added your memory module to the table.

Just for information:
I've just received the H2 (Rev B).
I've installed a 4GB Crucial memory module CT4G4SFS824A (not listed in
https://wiki.odroid.com/odroid-h2/hardw ... am_modules )
and it works perfectly.

[RomaT]

I confirm, on H2 (Rev B) the Crucial CT4G4SFS824A two 4GB modules - works fine
In WIKI see some inconsistencies (contradictions) - 16GB modules Crucial
you need to specify the model, Part No. in "Incompatible RAM Modules"

On the latest BIOS all RAM modules should now be working.

On new BIOS ive tested Corsair 8Gb 2133Mhz RAM (CMSO8GX4M1A2133C15) successfully with 1 module only for the moment.

[Moricio78]

I installed successfully On Rev B
- 2018 NEW KingSpec DDR4 16GB 2400Mhz
- KingSpec M2 SSD M.2 PCIE SSD M2 256GB
Both bought at Aliexpress.

@brad & @Moricio78,
Thank you for sharing the result. I've updated the table.

[RomaT]

I confirm, on H2 (Rev B) BIOS 1.05 the Kingston HyperX Impact [HX424S14IBK2/32] kit two 16GB modules - works fine

Here another working combination:

All works like a charm (5 days without a hitch)

Interesting, you use 2666 memory but in Linux it appears as 2400 memory?
Would you mind to run an explicit memory test to see what are the results?

I'm asking because the HyperX 2666 2x16Gb in my testing were unstable and had rare bit faults (viewtopic.php?f=171&t=35995#p265073), but I only ran memtest and not Linux itself.

It seems to be very stable:

#FOR WINDOWS#
Start with downloading software using this link. Download Software

Site page

Extract zip file to c:\temp\

Insert USB-stick to computer.

Run memtest86-USB.exe application
as administrator rights

Power off H2

Go to your H2 and put in USB-stick with frech installed of testmem86.

Following RomaT post, I went with the HX424S14IBK2/32 too. I confirm it works AOK on my 2nd H2.

@spitefulmonkey,
Added. Thanks!

I'm trying to use the Odroid-H2 (Rev. B, Bios 1.05) with
HyperX HX426S15IB2K2/16 Impact DDR4 16GB (Kit 2x8GB), 2666 MHz CL15 SODIMM
https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B01N2V ... UTF8&psc=1

However, even with the latest BIOS (v1.05), the board does not boot
using this memory with two modules installed.

Symptom: Two blue and one red LED on solid.

But it works fine with one module installed on slot B.

[odroid]

@Jowi, Thank you for the report.

Other user reported "CMSX16GX4M2A2666C18" didn't work with H2 even with a single channel configuration.
He sent us two samples and we are trying to find a root cause now.
Once we find a solution, it may solve your issue too hopefully.

There are three items in the incompatible module list so far.

Thank you! I was having trouble getting a bootable USB stick, this worked.

Hello, is working with 1 also? Or you have tested with 2? Thanks

[reka20]

Based on my experience on 3 module types, all of them are DDR4 4GB, 2400MHz, installed in single slot:
- Kingston KVR24S17S8/4, 1Rx8
- Hynix 24S17S8/4, 2Rx8
- Hynix HMA851S6AFR6N, 1Rx16
Plus shop where I bought H2 board from, who used:
- V-Gen 4GB, 2400MHz, 1Rx16 (I'm not sure the model number).

All of 1Rx16 modules work fine in the board, but others made the same symptom.
So, I'm quite sure, 1Rx16 RAM modules, not counting the 2666Mhz, working more consistently on H2 board.

Kingston HyperX Impact [HX424S14IB2K2/16] kit two 8GB modules - works fine as well
8Gx2 PC4-19200 2400MT/s CL14-14-14-35

Worked for me too.

Found another module that I don't get to function
Crucial CT16G4SFRA266.C8FE
https://www.crucial.com/memory/ddr4/ct16g4sfra266
Tried it in both H2 & H2+
Board is not able to get to BIOS
2 blue leds do light up but nothing on HDMI.
Also tried single bank.
Upgraded bios to latest/greatest 1.12 with a working sodimm form different vendor, but still no cigar

[odroid]

Updated the blacklist.
