I don't know exactly; it's a colocated machine that we don't own.
dmidecode (trimmed down) says:

System Information
Manufacturer: Supermicro
Product Name: C2SBM-Q
Version: 0123456789

[...]
Memory Device
Error Information Handle: No Error
Size: 2048 MB
Form Factor: DIMM
Bank Locator: DIMM 2
Type: DDR2
Type Detail: Synchronous
Speed: 800 MHz (1.2 ns)

But that's the good memory... I don't know what the bad memory was.

David.
