In reading these stories about the Canadian border, I recall being questioned about how much cash I had on me, and how I was expect that amount to last me the two weeks I'd be driving through the country - of course the answer was, CCs.
They weren't any nicer when we walked across the bridge at Niagara either.
That's weird. I have never been asked something like that before.

Received the updated quote with R620 instead of R720, which came in about $600 less per server. Same basic specs expect for a drop in memory from 192GB to 128GB.
That's a big memory drop.

This reminds me of when I went to canada to purchase some older equipment for a friend of mine. Going into canada was easy. Coming back was the problem.
That's always what I've found, too.

It was 8 years ago, and I did say I was driving through the scenic route on the way to NY - then the question.

It is... however I felt like 192GB was more than I needed. I probably should ask how much the add'l ram would cost and go ahead and get it if the cost is negligible.

As long as there was a good reason and not just a sudden loss of RAM

RAM is often super cheap. Get it now and you'll probably find a use for it.

@thwr Those Samsung's make sure they are PM or SM series drives and not 8xx series garbage.

I guess you mean the OP? I wouldn't put consumer drives in a server

@John-Nicholson They are supposed to be from the PM series (PM853T).
