vbox compatible with DDR4 RAM?

Post by Henry Ramirez »

Are Oracle VirtualBox for PeopleSoft Images compatible with DDR4 RAM?. My Customer was told some vertiual machines have issues with this type of RAM.


I'm looking to confirm if this would be an issue with the VBOX setup. I dont belive it will be but looking to confirm with the VBOX TEAM.

"Issues"? What's that?

VirtualBox does not care about or depend on the RAM technology at all.

That's not to say there can't be problems... but the RAM technology is not what's causing it. Of course without knowing any details there's nothing much to say.

I have been running for some months with 32GB of DDR4 ram. I will say that depending on the MB and bios you may need to upgrade the bios as mine originally had an issue with acting funny due to quad channel, and the upgrade fixed it. But it was host hardware issue really.
