I received some extra 32G memory sticks for UCS B200 M5 blades. Comparing to the ones in the blade, the new memory (samsung branded) has different model#, screenshot below. So would I be able to mix the new ones with existing ones? OR I should replace the existing ones with the new? The UCS firmware bundle is 4.1.

The B200 M5 calls this out:
Your two DIMM PIDs are:
- Do not mix RDIMMs, LRDIMMs, or TSV-RDIMMs.
Put all RDIMMs in one server, put all LRDIMMs in the other server.

i do not see any issue, you can add a new 32GB to the exiting blade and test it.

I did try to add 12 new sticks besides the 12 existing ones. But the server can not pass "Wait BIOS POST" during discovery... If I put in 12 extra sticks matching the existing model, there is no issue with discovery...
